Volunteers repairing bikes. Neighbors reaching goals.

Freewheels Houston repairs donated bikes and puts them into the hands of those who need them most. Our volunteers provide reliable, refurbished bicycles—along with new helmets, lights and locks—to refugees, veterans, youth from low-income families and others.

The mobility that comes with a bike can be life-changing, empowering people to pursue opportunities available in the Houston community.

We rely on the generosity of donors to pay for parts, supplies and safety equipment and maintain our well-equipped bike repair shop in southwest Houston.
