ABOUT:

Welcome to On Your Bike! We are a Toronto-based non-profit organization that provides bicycles to kids in need.

Take a few moments to browse around and you will find the latest news, updates and information relating to On Your Bike! Be sure to check in regularly as we have many exciting events and initiatives planned for 2011!

We all cherish the memory of our first bicycle and the freedom it gave us to explore. Sadly, many children whose parents can only afford the basics will never experience this indescribable sense of independence.  That's why On Your Bike! strives to provide disadvantaged children in Toronto with bikes of their own.

Founded in 2003 by APEX Public Relations, On Your Bike! has donated close to 1,500 bikes.
