Home for the Bike Project

Success! We purchased our building at 30 Henry St. on March 17, 2025!
Thanks to so many individuals and businesses, we reached and exceeded our initial fundraising goal,
which means we’ll have NO mortgage! 
Funds Raised: $80,454
(Plus $9,450 in pro-bono services)
*Our net step is a small foundation repair, followed by some remediation in the basement.
In 2026, we plan to have the building painted and weatherized.

Now in our 13th year of service, the Bike Project is more than just a bike center; it’s a safe space for the community, where youth and adults collaborate to revitalize bikes and gain valuable skills. 
THANK YOU to all who have contributed! You’re helping us to make a difference by providing affordable access to bicycles, empowering youth and serving as a valuable resource for the community.

*Your future contributions can be allocated toward improvements as well, such as painting, siding repair and
weatherization. Just add a note with your donation!

Location Highlights:
30 Henry St. is strategically located near schools and neighborhoods, fostering community ties. Its off-street parking area doubles as a safe place for children to test-ride bikes. See us on the map.

Reasons for Ownership:
Financial Stability: Owning the building prevents potential rent increases or eviction, ensuring stable and predictable expenses.

Control Over Maintenance: Ownership allows for structural improvements, weatherization, and the construction of an extended overhang for the outdoor work area.

 

Preservation of the Neighborhood: The historic exterior will be preserved, visually enhancing the community
