The Problem

The problem were trying solve is getting youth ages 7-21 away from drugs, violence, and gangs, by focusing their attention on bicycles.

Plan of Action

My plan of action is to engage up to 250 youth between the ages of 12 and 24, to a positive outlet thats fun, educational, and promotes healthy lifestyles. The Scraper Bikes has gotten 3 national press mentions such as: NPR, Current TV, and The Christan Science Monitor. We want to expand and enlighten young peoples perspective on life through fixing and riding bicycles.
