About Pedals for People

  • Pedals for People is a heartfelt initiative by the National Cycling Center (NCC) dedicated to providing bicycles to underserved communities. By receiving donated bikes, rehabilitating them, and giving them to new riders, we aim to make biking accessible to everyone, regardless of their background or financial situation.
Our Mission

Our mission is to empower individuals and communities through the gift of mobility. By refurbishing donated bikes, we offer a sustainable mode of transportation that promotes health, independence, and environmental stewardship.

What We Offer

Pedals for People

  • Bike Donation: We accept donated bikes of all types and conditions.
  • Bike Rehabilitation: Our team of skilled volunteers and mechanics refurbishes these bikes to ensure they are safe and ready to ride.
  • Bike Distribution: We give these rehabilitated bikes to individuals and organizations, primarily focusing on those from underserved communities.
Participation and Impact

The Pedals for People initiative has had a profound impact on the community, providing much-needed transportation options and fostering a sense of independence and freedom among recipients. Our reach extends beyond Winston-Salem to other parts of North Carolina and West Virginia highlighting the widespread need and appreciation for this service.

Pedals for People stands out as a unique and valuable program by:

  • Community Collaboration: Partnering with several other non-profits, we support similar efforts across Winston-Salem and the Triad region.
