Donate a bike
Have a bicycle your children have outgrown, or one that has not moved in years? Bring it to our workshop in Marina da Gama. We take bicycles in almost any condition, and parts too. If we can fix it, we will find it a new rider. If we cannot, its parts will keep other bicycles running.
Leave a gift in your will
You can support BEN in your will. This can be a set amount or a share of your estate. Your gift will help us get more bicycles to the people who need them.
