Help Open Freewheel Madison Bike Resource Center
We’re a time-tested Madison community nonprofit where your donation will be put right to work. In the 15 years Freewheel has been working, we’ve given away more than twelve thousand bikes to those in need and taught over than six thousand students the skills to maintain their own transportation. We’re on the front lines of recycling, and have diverted hundreds of tons of bikes and bike parts away from the landfill and back onto the road. Each of our instructors learned from a past volunteer. We follow the each-one-teach-one method and share skills, experience, and resources with our community.
Financial donations help us offer professional teaching and mechanic services to people who can’t pay, gets us the parts and tools that don’t come in as donations, and covers the things that only money can buy.
We’re happy to announce that we are opening a brand new location Downtown in the Judge Doyle Square building! (Learn more here!) To make this happen, we’re going to need a boost to double our classes, furnish a new workshop space, and get new students off the ground and biking!
We have thank-you gifts available for those who support us at any level.. To receive a gift, please make sure you give your full contact information: name, phone, email, and address when you donate, or we won’t be able to connect with you!
