| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1, DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION MISSION:(CONTINUED) | WE ADDRESS THE SYSTEMIC CHALLENGES OF DISTANCE AND LAST MILE MOBILITY BY MANUFACTURING A BICYCLE SPECIALLY DESIGNED FROM THE GROUND UP FOR ROUGH ROADS AND HEAVY LOADS FOR POOR PEOPLE IN RURAL AREAS WHO CANNOT AFFORD TO BUY BICYCLES AND CONSUMERS. RUGGED, AFFORDABLE, LONG-LASTING, AND LOCALLY-ASSEMBLED, WBR DISTRIBUTES THE BUFFALO BICYCLE TO HEALTHCARE SERVICE PROVIDERS, STUDENTS, FARMERS, AND BUSINESSES, WHILE BUILDING A SUSTAINABLE BICYCLE MOBILITY ECOSYSTEM TO SUPPORT END-USERS. BY WORKING WITH PARTNERS, TRAINING LOCAL BICYCLE MECHANICS, PROVIDING MARKET-BASED ACCESS TO SPARE PARTS, AND NURTURING COMMUNITY OWNERSHIP OF PROGRAMMING, WE SUPPORT COMMUNITY-BASED LONG-TERM IMPACT AND A VIBRANT MOBILITY ECOSYSTEM. SINCE 2005, WBR HAS DISTRIBUTED 550,742 PURPOSE-BUILT BICYCLES (AS OF DEC 2020), IMPACTING AN ESTIMATED 2.8 MILLION INDIVIDUALS ACROSS 20 COUNTRIES. WE RIGOROUSLY MEASURE RESULTS, SEEK INPUT FROM USERS AND PARTNERS, AND ITERATE THE BUFFALO BICYCLE AND OUR PROGRAMS TO MAXIMIZE SUSTAINABLE IMPACT ON THOSE WE SERVE. ILLUSTRATIVE RESULTS EDUCATION: WBR'S EDUCATION AND EMPOWERMENT PROGRAM CONTINUES TO IMPROVE STUDENT ATTENDANCE, PUNCTUALITY AND BROADER EDUCATION OUTCOMES, FIRST DEMONSTRATED IN A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIAL IN 2017-2018. IN 2019, TWO YEARS AFTER THE START OF THE INTERVENTION, RESEARCHERS FOLLOWED UP ON THE STUDY AND EVALUATED SCHOOL ADMINISTRATIVE DATA RELATED TO ATTENDANCE AND DROPOUTS FOR GIRL STUDENTS AT TREATMENT AND CONTROL SCHOOLS. THEY FOUND THAT THE BICYCLE PROGRAM CONTINUED TO IMPROVE GIRLS' ATTENDANCE AND HAD AN EFFECT ON DROPOUT RATES. IN 2020, ZAMBIA WAS AFFECTED BY THE GLOBAL COVID PANDEMIC WITH PRIMARY AND SECONDARY SCHOOLS CLOSED FROM APRIL 2020. WHEN SCHOOLS REOPENED IN SEPTEMBER 2020, RESEARCHERS FOUND THE BICYCLE PROGRAM INTERVENTION CONTINUED TO IMPROVE GIRLS' ATTENDANCE, THREE YEARS AFTER PROGRAM START, WITH A 29% REDUCTON IN ABSENTEEISM. GIRLS WITH BICYCLES ATTENDED AN EXTRA 2 DAYS OF SCHOOL PER TERM VS GIRLS WITHOUT BICYCLES. GIRLS WITH BICYCLES WERE 19% LESS LIKELY TO DROP OUT OF SCHOOL VS GIRLS WITHOUT BICYCLES. HEALTH: ON TWO U.S. AGENCY FOR INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT FUNDED HEALTH FOCUSED ACTIVITIES, THE PROJECTS FOUND THAT WITH A BUFFALO BICYCLE, HEALTH WORKERS WITH A BUFFALO BICYCLE IN KENYA INCREASED THEIR MONTHLY PATIENT VISITS 88%, BOOSTED PATIENT REFERRALS UP TO 50%, AND CONTRIBUTED TO TUBERCULOSIS DRUG DEFAULTER RATES DROPPING TO 0% IN A SAMPLE OF CLINICS. IN ZAMBIA, WHERE RETAINING VOLUNTEER HEALTH WORKERS CAN BE A MAJOR CHALLENGE, THE PROJECT FOUND THAT WITH A TWO-YEAR SERVICE-TO-OWN INCENTIVE AGREEMENT FOR A BICYCLE, HEALTH WORKER RETENTION RATES REACHED 95%. LIVELIHOODS: THROUGH A PARTNERSHIP WITH A LOCAL ZAMBIAN DAIRY COOPERATIVE PROVIDING MILK TO PARMALAT, WBR HAS BEEN SELLING BUFFALO BICYCLES TO SMALL HOLDER DAIRY FARMERS. WITH THEIR BICYCLE, THE COOPERATIVE'S FARMERS INCREASED THEIR DELIVERIES BY 25% AND INCOME BY 23%, WHILE MAINTAINING A 100% REPAYMENT RATE. IN SUPPORT OF A FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION ACTIVITY PROMOTING CONSERVATION AGRICULTURE PRACTICES, LEAD FARMERS THAT WERE PROVIDED BUFFALO BICYCLES INCREASED THEIR FOLLOWER FARMER VISITS BY 120%, 79% OF LEAD FARMERS WERE ABLE TO VISIT MORE FOLLOWER FARMERS PER MONTH, AND TIME TO MARKET DROPPED BY 45%, SAVING 3.5 HOURS PER WEEK WHILE REDUCING POST-HARVEST LOSSES. THE NEED ACCORDING TO THE WORLD BANK, ONE BILLION PEOPLE LACK ACCESS TO ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES, MARKETS, HEALTHCARE, AND EDUCATION DUE TO DISTANCE. IN AFRICA ALONE, 70% OF THE RURAL POPULATION LACK ACCESS TO ALL SEASON ROAD AND TRANSPORT SERVICES, AND PRIMARILY RELY ON WALKING. RURAL HOUSEHOLDS FACE SEVERAL BARRIERS PREVENTING THEM FROM OVERCOMING THE CHALLENGE OF DISTANCE. IN SPARSELY POPULATED GEOGRAPHIES, NATIONAL AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS PROVIDE FEW PUBLIC TRANSPORT OPTIONS. PERSONAL TRANSPORT ASSETS, LIKE BICYCLES AND MOTORBIKES, ARE RELATIVELY EXPENSIVE FOR HOUSEHOLDS LIVING AT THE BASE OF THE ECONOMIC PYRAMID, AND RURAL HOUSEHOLDS ALSO HAVE LIMITED ACCESS TO FINANCIAL SERVICES AND PRODUCTS. AND, EVEN IF A HOUSEHOLD PURCHASES A PERSONAL TRANSPORT ASSET, THOSE AVAILABLE TEND TO BE OF POORER QUALITY, DON'T LAST LONG, DON'T MEET THE HOUSEHOLD'S NEEDS, ARE COSTLY TO MAINTAIN, AND HAVE LIMITED OPTIONS FOR SPARE PARTS AND MAINTENANCE. AS A RESULT, DISTANCE AND LACK OF AFFORDABLE, RELIABLE TRANSPORTATION HAVE PROFOUND IMPACT ON DEVELOPMENT OUTCOMES. FOR EXAMPLE, ACCORDING TO THE U.S. AGENCY FOR INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT, 47% OF RURAL-BASED WOMEN IN ZIMBABWE CITED DISTANCE AS A PRIMARY CHALLENGE TO ACCESSING HEALTH CARE VERSUS JUST 10% OF URBAN-BASED WOMEN. IN MALAWI, NET ATTENDANCE FOR SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN RURAL AREAS IS JUST 13%, A THIRD OF THE RATE OF SECONDARY SCHOOL ATTENDANCE IN URBAN AREAS. AND IN ZAMBIA, 64% OF RURAL RESIDENTS FALL WITHIN THE LOWEST TWO WEALTH QUINTILES VERSUS 3.1% OF URBAN RESIDENTS. MEETING THE NEED AND MARKET DEMAND WBR ADDRESSES THE NEED AND MARKET DEMAND FOR AFFORDABLE, QUALITY BICYCLE TRANSPORT IN DEVELOPING REGIONS OF THE WORLD THROUGH A HOLISTIC, SUSTAINABLE APPROACH. WE UTILIZE AN INNOVATIVE BUSINESS MODEL: WBR IS A 501(C)3 NOT-FOR-PROFIT THAT OWNS 100% OF BUFFALO BICYCLE LIMITED, A FOR-PROFIT SOCIAL ENTERPRISE. THROUGH WBR'S 501(C)3, WBR RAISES FUNDS TO PROVIDE TRANSPORT SOLUTIONS TO THOSE WHO CANNOT AFFORD THEM, AND THROUGH BUFFALO BICYCLE LIMITED, WE SELL THE BUFFALO BICYCLE, SPARE PARTS, AND VALUE-ADDED SERVICES. ALL PROCEEDS FROM BICYCLE SALES SUPPORT WBR-FUNDED PROGRAMS, REPLACING SOME OF THE NEED FOR PHILANTHROPIC FUNDS. BUFFALO BICYCLE LIMITED ALSO MULTIPLIES OUR IMPACT BY INCREASING MARKET ACCESS TO AFFORDABLE/HIGH-QUALITY BICYCLE TRANSPORT, DIVERSIFYING OUR FUNDING BASE, PROVIDING A MARKET-BASED SUPPLY CHAIN OF SPARE PARTS, AND CREATING MANUFACTURING ECONOMIES OF SCALE THAT LOWER THE PER BIKE COST OF WBR PROGRAMS. WE DISTRIBUTE OUR BICYCLES THROUGH THREE PRIMARY CHANNELS: ORGANIZATIONAL SALES AND PARTNERSHIPS (E.G. UNICEF, NGOS), CONSUMER SALES (E.G. LOCAL BUSINESSES), AND WBR-FUNDED PROGRAMS THAT DONATE BICYCLES TO THOSE WHO CANNOT AFFORD THEM (E.G. RURAL STUDENTS). THROUGHOUT OUR ACTIVITIES, WE EMPHASIZE WOMEN'S EMPOWERMENT TO MAXIMIZE THE IMPACT OF OUR WORK. IN OUR PERMANENT PRESENCE COUNTRIES OF COLOMBIA, KENYA, MALAWI, ZAMBIA, AND ZIMBABWE, WE ESTABLISH MARKET-BASED BICYCLE ECOSYSTEMS BY TRAINING LOCAL MECHANICS, ESTABLISHING SPARE PARTS SUPPLY CHAINS, BUILDING COMMUNITY OWNERSHIP OF PROGRAMS, RIGOROUSLY MONITORING RESULTS, AND ITERATING OUR PROGRAMS AND PRODUCTS BASED ON USER AND PARTNER FEEDBACK. |
| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A: (CONTINUED) | THROUGH PARTNERSHIPS WITH TARGET COMMUNITIES, COMMUNITY MEMBERS PLAY A CRITICAL ROLE IN IDENTIFYING AND PRIORITIZING HIGH IMPACT ACTIVITIES, WITH THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF ASSISTING COMMUNITIES TO INCREASE ACCESS TO EDUCATION, HEALTHCARE, AND LIVELIHOODS IN A SUSTAINABLE MANNER. WORKING WITH LOCAL LEADERS AND BUILDING LOCAL MANAGEMENT CAPACITY, OUR PARTNER COMMUNITIES USE SUSTAINABLE BICYCLE TRANSPORT TO REDUCE THEIR VULNERABILITY, BOOST THEIR INDEPENDENCE, AND ULTIMATELY THRIVE. BASED ON LEARNINGS AND INSIGHTS FROM PREVIOUS ACTIVITIES, WBR'S PROGRAMMING APPROACH HAS CONTINUED TO EVOLVE. WE OPERATE BOTH SECTOR-SPECIFIC ACTIVITIES FOCUSED ON HEALTH, EDUCATION, OR LIVELIHOODS, WHILE ALSO LAUNCHING A HOLISTIC MULTI-SECTOR APPROACH IN DEFINED GEOGRAPHIES FOR A FIVE+ YEAR DURATION. GIVEN THAT A BICYCLE IS A HOUSEHOLD ASSET THAT MEN, WOMEN, BOYS, AND GIRLS USE IN MANY DIFFERENT WAYS, A HOLISTIC APPROACH ENABLES COST EFFICIENCIES AND AN EVEN HIGHER RETURN ON IMPACT. USING A MULTI-SECTOR APPROACH IN DEFINED GEOGRAPHIES WITH AN UPFRONT COMMITMENT TO A MULTI-YEAR ENGAGEMENT, WBR CAN BEST SUPPORT SUSTAINABLE BICYCLE USE THROUGH OUR SUSTAINABLE BICYCLE ECOSYSTEM, WHICH INCLUDES OUR ASSEMBLY AND DISTRIBUTION FACILITY, SPARE PARTS SUPPLY CHAIN, TRAINED LOCAL MECHANICS, SOCIAL ENTERPRISE RETAIL SHOPS, AND COMMUNITY OWNERSHIP OF PROGRAMMING. OUR PROGRAMMING APPROACH IS INFORMED BY THE SUSTAINABLE LIVELIHOODS FRAMEWORK DEVELOPED BY THE UNITED KINGDOM'S DEPARTMENT OF INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT. THE SUSTAINABLE LIVELIHOODS APPROACH LOOKS HOLISTICALLY AT POVERTY'S CAUSES AND CONSIDERS THE ASSETS THAT POOR PEOPLE NEED IN ORDER TO SUSTAIN AN ADEQUATE INCOME TO LIVE, SUCH AS QUALITY BICYCLES IN AREAS WHERE DISTANCE IS A CHALLENGE. OUR THEORY OF CHANGE IS BASED ON THE HYPOTHESIS THAT IF COMMUNITIES HELP IDENTIFY THE DISTANCE BARRIERS THEY FACE AND CO-DESIGN SOLUTIONS, ARE SUPPORTED TO CREATE LOCAL MANAGEMENT STRUCTURES, AND ARE PROVIDED WITH HIGH QUALITY BUFFALO BICYCLES, SUPPORTED BY WBR-TRAINED COMMUNITY MECHANICS AND ACCESS TO SPARE PARTS, THEN THEY WILL MANAGE COMMUNITY BICYCLE PROGRAMS AND BENEFIT FROM IMPROVED TRANSPORTATION TO GOODS AND SERVICES. THAT WILL RESULT IN IMPROVED HOUSEHOLD ACCESS TO MARKETS, COMMUNITY STRUCTURES AND SERVICES, GIRL AND BOY SCHOOL ATTENDANCE, MAINTAINED BICYCLES, AND SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY OWNED BICYCLE PROGRAMS. OVER THE LONG-TERM, OUR APPROACH RESULTS IN IMPROVED PRODUCTIVITY, INCREASED AND DIVERSIFIED HOUSEHOLD INCOMES, IMPROVED EDUCATION AND HEALTHCARE, AND OTHER EMPOWERMENT OUTCOMES. THESE OUTCOMES, SUPPORTED BY WBR'S HOLISTIC BICYCLE ECOSYSTEM, WILL RESULT IN PEOPLE AND COMMUNITIES BEING INDEPENDENT AND THRIVING. |
| FORM 990 PART III, LINE 4B: (CONTINUED) | SOCIAL ENTERPRISE SALES TYPICALLY ACCOUNT FOR 45% TO 60% OF WBR'S TOTAL BICYCLES DISTRIBUTED IN A GIVEN YEAR. SINCE THE LAUNCH OF BUFFALO BICYCLE LIMITED IN 2008, OUR SOCIAL ENTERPRISE HAS SOLD APPROXIMATELY 315,000 BICYCLES. THROUGH BUFFALO BICYCLE LIMITED, WBR MULTIPLIES OUR IMPACT: WE INCREASE MARKET ACCESS FOR THE BUFFALO BICYCLE TO INDIVIDUALS AND ORGANIZATIONS, EXPAND WBR'S FUNDING BASE (REDUCING SOME NEED FOR PHILANTHROPIC FUNDING), NURTURE A MARKET-BASED SUPPLY CHAIN OF SPARE PARTS, AND LEVERAGE MANUFACTURING ECONOMIES OF SCALE, WHICH LOWERS THE PER UNIT COST OF BICYCLES FOR WBR PROGRAMS. WORLD BICYCLE RELIEF (WBR) SUPPORTS THE SOCIAL ENTERPRISE PROGRAM THROUGH SHARED LEADERSHIP RESOURCES. SOCIAL ENTERPRISE SALES FROM OUR WHOLLY OWNED FOR-PROFIT SUBSIDIARY, BUFFALO BICYCLES LTD., HELP FUND OUR PHILANTHROPIC PROGRAMS AND PROVIDE VALUABLE DATA THAT AID US IN DEVELOPING ECONOMIES OF SCALE AND OTHER EFFICIENCIES. IN AN EFFORT TO CREATE EFFICIENCIES IN RESOURCES, A PORTION OF TIME AND RESOURCES FROM CERTAIN MEMBERS OF THE LEADERSHIP TEAM ARE ALLOCATED TO THE RUNNING OF BUFFALO BICYCLES. IN DOING SO, WBR AND BUFFALO BICYCLES MAINTAIN AN ALIGNED FOCUS ON THE MISSION OF THE ORGANIZATION - TO PROVIDE RELIABLE, AFFORDABLE TRANSPORTATION IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES. |
| FORM 990 PART III, LINE 4C: (CONTINUED) | THAT'S WHY WBR'S PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT TEAM CONSTANTLY WORKS TO IMPROVE THE BICYCLE AND ITS SPARE PARTS: TO HELP ENSURE THE SUSTAINABILITY AND ADVANCEMENT OF ALL PROGRAMS THAT USE THE BUFFALO BICYCLE. WBR'S GUIDING PRINCIPLE OF ALL ANSWERS ARE FOUND IN THE FIELD MEANS THAT DESIGN DECISIONS ARE FRAMED BY THE LANDSCAPE OF LOCALLY AVAILABLE SPARE PARTS, TOOLS AND REPAIR EXPERTISE, AS WELL AS CULTURAL CONSIDERATIONS ABOUT HOW BIKES ARE LIKELY TO BE USED AND MAINTAINED. THIS OFTEN RESULTS IN USING UNCONVENTIONAL COMPONENTS ON THE BIKES. THE COASTER BRAKE, FOR EXAMPLE, SLOWS THE REAR WHEEL THROUGH A BACK-PEDALING ACTION. THIS SEEMINGLY ANTIQUATED DESIGN, NOW TYPICALLY FOUND ONLY ON CHILDREN'S BIKES, REQUIRES NO CABLES TO OPERATE. THIS MAY BE A TRIVIAL CONSIDERATION IN THE UNITED STATES, WHERE BRAKE CABLES ARE EASY TO FIND. BUT AS THEY ARE NOT COMMONLY AVAILABLE IN THE COUNTRIES IN WHICH WBR OPERATES, THE ADVANTAGE OF A CABLE-FREE BRAKE IS SIGNIFICANT. WBR'S PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT TEAM AIMS TO BE CONSIDERATE OF THE REALITIES OF WHERE OUR BIKES ARE USED. HOWEVER, WBR ALSO FEELS IT HAS A RESPONSIBILITY TO IMPROVE THE EXPERIENCE OF OWNING AND USING A BICYCLE. WHERE THE AVAILABLE SPARE PARTS ARE INADEQUATE, WBR SEEKS TO MAKE BETTER PARTS AVAILABLE. WHERE AVAILABILITY IS LIMITED, WBR SEEKS TO IMPROVE DISTRIBUTION AND ACCESS THROUGH ITS NETWORK OF TRAINED MECHANICS AND GROWING NETWORK OF LOCAL SHOPS. THE DESIGN OF THE BICYCLE IS DYNAMIC. THE PROCESS IS ONGOING. AS THE ORGANIZATION GROWS, AND ANNUAL VOLUMES INCREASE, WBR REVISITS EARLIER DESIGN DECISIONS TO CONTINUOUSLY REFINE THE BICYCLE. |

| COVID-19 NARRATIVE CHANGES/OPERATING CHANGES | AS COVID-19 RAPIDLY PROGRESSED INTO A GLOBAL PANDEMIC, LOCALIZED LOCKDOWNS CLOSED SCHOOLS AND FORCED WORLD BICYCLE RELIEF TO PAUSE PLANNED BICYCLE DISTRIBUTIONS INTO EDUCATION PROGRAMS. WITH A QUICK PIVOT TO OBTAIN "ESSENTIAL SERVICES" STATUS, THE ORGANIZATION ENGAGED LOCAL AND REGIONAL PARTNERS IN DELIVERING BICYCLES TO FRONTLINE HEALTH AND AGRICULTURAL WORKERS. RIGOROUS HEALTH AND SAFETY MEASURES WERE INSTITUTED TO PROTECT THE ASSEMBLY GROUP AND KEEP BUFFALO BICYCLE RETAIL SHOPS OPEN FOR COMMUNITY ACCESS TO SPARES AND BICYCLES. PRIORITIZING THE HEALTH OF A GLOBAL TEAM AND THE ORGANIZATION'S LONG-TERM STABILITY IN THE FACE OF UNCERTAINTY, WORLD BICYCLE RELIEF ADOPTED A CAUTIOUS AND PRUDENT SPENDING APPROACH THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. FOLLOWING LOCAL PROTOCOLS, FIELD ENGAGEMENTS WERE REDUCED, AND FOCUS SHIFTED TO FURTHER DEVELOPING FIELD STRATEGY, PROGRAM DESIGN, AND SYSTEMS. AS THE CRISIS CONTINUES TO EVOLVE IN 2021 AND LOCAL RESTRICTIONS EASE, PROGRAM OPERATIONS HAVE RE-STARTED WITH PLANS TO SCALE AS QUICKLY AND RESPONSIBLY AS POSSIBLE TOWARD A 2021 PROGRAM BICYCLE DISTRIBUTION GOAL OF +47% OVER 2019.
