Great Falls: Collecting ‘Bikes for the World’

On October 1, more than 20 Boy Scouts, adult leaders, and family members from Great Falls’ Troop 55, chartered by St. Francis Episcopal Church, worked with non-profit organization “Bikes for The World” from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. to collect and prepare 51 used bicycles for Central America. The bikes will be shipped to Panama to make quality used bicycles and parts affordable and available to lower income people and select institutions, to enhance their lives and livelihoods through better transport, and to generate skilled employment in bicycle repair and maintenance overseas.
