Review for Pedals for Progress, High Bridge, NJ, USA
Pedals for Progress is a wonderful program that combines recycling/reusing old bicycles and sewing machines (promoting sustainability and preventing usuable bikes and sewing machines from ending up in landfills) with helping people in developing countries improve the quality of their lives (providing bicycles for transportation for work and school and sewing machines for starting small businesses). Our school community service program has collected bikes and sewing machines through bi-yearly collections where students actually help dismantle the bikes to ship abroad. The students then learn about the value of reusing servicable bikes and the importance of viable, affordable transportation for people in developing countries. Pedals for Progress is terrific!
