Bikes and Blessings -Our Why

Bikes and Blessings -Our Why

Bikes and Blessings -Our Why


Inspired by the love for Roy A. Wilborn Jr. who was robbed for his bicycle, his only means of transportation and fatally shot, we provide encouragement and resources for men in transition from homelessness to thriving.


 We strive to remove the transportation barrier as our homeless population work towards fixing their homeless situation and transportation needs.  


 

New bikes are specifically chosen for individuals who are actively helping themselves in work or education programs through an application process.


 It is more than a giveaway. For each homeless individual, a new bike fills the gap of transportation woes when looking  for jobs, attending medical appointments and classes. 


Our mission is to bring HOPE, help them understand that they are believed in, supported, and moving in the right direction. 

The Facts.

Bikes and Blessings -Our Why

Bikes and Blessings -Our Why

 When you get sick what do you do? You probably make an appointment with your doctor, hop in your car and try to arrive on time. For the homelessness, showing up for  an appointment on time, to class and maintaining a job becomes almost impossible without a reliable means of transportation of their own.  


As of January 2019, Texas had an estimated 25,848 experiencing homelessness on any given day, as reported by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).


In Dallas and Collin County combined a total of 4,538 persons were reported experiencing homeless of which 1,452 were unsheltered.  

 Thankfully, with support of many, some are blessed with the opportunity to transition from homelessness into a home of there own while gaining the medical attention, education and job support needed.   

Bikes and Blessings

We are so humbled, grateful to all of our supporters and thankful for the opportunity to donate bikes and safety equipment to the residents  of The Samaritan Inn. The Samaritan Inn is comprehensive homeless program that helps willing people gain dignity and independence. We're delighted to partner with them and provide more  bikes and blessings in the near future.
