GENERAL INFORMATIONFORM 990, PART III, LINE 1 World Bicycle Relief (WBR) mobilizes people through "The Power of Bicycles." Our mission is to improve access to health services, education, and economic opportunities in developing regions of the world where distance is a challenge. We build and distribute a rugged, specially-designed, locally-assembled bicycle to health workers, students, households, and entrepreneurs. Since 2006, we have distributed over 392,000 bicycles to individuals in 19 countries. Our programs and social enterprise have contributed to community health workers expanding patient visits by 45%, students improving school pass rates by 36%, and dairy farmers increasing incomes by 23%. We know a bicycle can't stand alone, so we support our end-users by establishing market-based bicycle value chains, community-led programming, and continuous monitoring, evaluation, and learning. End-users have access to community-based field mechanics for maintenance services and spare parts, while our programs are buttressed by WBR-supported community supervisory committees that assist with program oversight, management, and monitoring. -Education: 27,481 bicycles were provided to students, teachers and school volunteers to increase access to education and reduce travel time with a goal to improve educational outcomes. -Healthcare: 15,441 bicycles were provided to healthcare workers to reduce travel time, reach more patients and spend more time caring for each patient -- resulting in higher quality care and healthier communities. -Economic Development: 11,765 bicycles were sold to entrepreneurs, who used the bikes to increase their capacity, earn more income and improve the quality of life for their families. Over the last 12 years (through 2017), WBR has deployed more than 392,000 bicycles in 20 countries, changing 1,960,000 lives. (Based on average family size in our program countries, one bicycle is changing the lives of five people.) HOW WE DO IT With the experience and expertise gained over the last 12 years designing and delivering Buffalo Bicycles, WBR has developed an efficient, innovative and scalable model to successfully address the great need for reliable, affordable transportation in rural areas of developing countries. We are results-driven, monitoring and evaluating our programs to ensure we meet the end-user's needs. We combine philanthropic distributions with social enterprise sales to achieve greater impact. We are collaborative, working with partners who help us design and implement better programs. Our supply chain is built to be sustainable, scalable and nimble, while our Buffalo Bicycles are designed and manufactured to be strong, durable and affordable. And our local assembly and field mechanic training creates transportation infrastructure in the countries where we work. Through this model, we are helping individuals overcome transportation barriers to education, healthcare and economic development, and build better lives.
ORGANIZATION'S MISSION (Continued)Form 990, Part III, Line 1 Our mission is to create access to education, healthcare, and economic opportunities in developing regions of the world where distance is a challenge. We envision a world where distance is no longer a barrier to independence and livelihood.
PROGRAM SERVICES (CONTINUED)Form 990, Part III, Line 4A EDUCATION WBR'S BICYCLES FOR EDUCATIONAL EMPOWERMENT PROGRAM (BEEP), WHICH LAUNCHED IN ZAMBIA IN 2009, HELPS IMPROVE ACCESS TO BASIC EDUCATION BY PROVIDING BUFFALO BICYCLES TO STUDENTS, TEACHERS AND SCHOOL VOLUNTEERS IN RURAL AREAS OF DEVELOPING COUNTRIES. BICYCLE RECIPIENTS ARE SELECTED BASED ON DISTANCE TRAVELED AND VULNERABILITY CRITERIA ESTABLISHED BY COMMUNITY MEMBERS WHO OVERSEE THE PROGRAM. STUDENTS SIGN A STUDY-TO-OWN CONTRACT, AGREEING TO ATTEND CLASSES REGULARLY. WHEN THEY'RE NOT RIDING THE BUFFALO BICYCLE TO SCHOOL, IT'S AVAILABLE TO CARRY GOODS TO MARKET, VISIT THE HEALTHCARE CLINIC AND ACCESS WATER. THIS EMPOWERS THE HOUSEHOLD WITH A TOOL FOR DEVELOPMENT, LEADING TO INCREASED ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY IN COMMUNITIES. TO DATE, WBR HAS DISTRIBUTED OVER 150,000 BICYCLES FOR EDUCATION, INCLUDING MORE THAN 27,000 IN 2017. A RECENT STUDY SHOWS THAT STUDENTS IN ZAMBIA WITH BUFFALO BICYCLES INCREASED THEIR ATTENDANCE BY UP TO 28% AND THEIR ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE BY UP TO 59%. HEALTHCARE According to the World Bank, more than one billion people living in rural areas lack access to all-season roads, or affordable public or private transportation options. In these communities, distance and lack of mobility hinder community health worker outreach, constrain patient-visit duration, and dampen health worker retention. With long distances separating many households from health centers, families have limited capacity to seek health services. The results are striking. For example, more than 50% of women living in rural areas of Zambia, versus 10% in urban areas, cited distance to a health facility as one of her greatest challenges in seeking medical care. In rural areas of Zimbabwe, under-five mortality rates are 50% higher than in urban areas. And women in rural communities of Indonesia are five times less likely to receive antenatal care compared to their urban counterparts. Our response To address these challenges, World Bicycle Relief (WBR) established the Wheels for Integrated and Sustainable Health (WISH) program, supported USAID and PEPFAR funded activities, and partnered with local and international organizations to provide more than 165,000 bicycles to community health workers in Kenya, Malawi, Zambia, Ghana, and Zimbabwe. By training community-based mechanics and establishing community oversight through local bicycle supervisory commitees, WBR ensures health workers receiving bicycles have sustainable access to critical preventative mainenance, repair services, spare parts, and community-led support. The results have been profound. -With a bicycle, health workers travel four times further and increase average monthly patient visits by 45%, on average; -With a two-year work-to-own incentive agreement for a bicycle, health worker retention rates exceeded 98%; and -Patient referals to health services increased up to 50%. Yet these results do not paint a complete picture. Qualitative feedback from health supervisors and health workers empahsize that time spent with each patient increases, as does the quality of care. Similarly, supervisors report that community health workers with bicycles are more motivated than workers that did not receive bicycles. And a recent study of WBR programming suggested that health workers that owned a bicycle enjoyed enhanced social status, particularly for those workers who were women and homemakers. And health workers report increased incomes by utilizing the bicycle during non-work/volunteer hours for livelihood activities. Illustrative project experience and partnerships: Malawi - WBR is collaborating with consortium partners and the Ministry of Health to implement our flagship WISH program across 10 districts in Malawi, expanding health service delivery at the community-level. Zambia - In support of the Malaria Control and Elimination Partnership in Africa, WBR is providing Buffalo Bicycles to increase diagnoses and timely treatment of malaria, as well as the distribution of insecticide treated nets. Kenya - To promote tuberculosis (TB) screening, increase patient referrals to health facilities, engage TB patients with interrupted treatment regimens, and provide home-based care to TB patients, WBR is partnering with PATH to offer reliable bicycle mobility for TB health service providers. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IN AREAS OF THE DEVELOPING WORLD WHERE WALKING IS THE PRIMARY MODE OF TRANSPORTATION, DISTANCE IS A CHALLENGE TO EARNING A LIVELIHOOD. APPROXIMATELY 22% OF BUFFALO BICYCLES DISTRIBUTED IN 2017 WERE SOCIAL ENTERPRISE SALES TO ENTREPRENEURS -- LEADING TO INCREASED MARKET ACCESS AND PRODUCTIVITY, AS WELL AS IMPROVED LIVELIHOOD FOR THEIR FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES. IN 2015, A RESEARCH CASE STUDY WAS CONDUCTED ON THE PALABANA DAIRY COOPERATIVE, WHICH BEGAN PURCHASING BUFFALO BICYCLES IN 2011 AND HAS PURCHASED 281 BICYCLES TO DATE. THROUGH THE RESEARCH, WE FOUND THAT FARMERS USING THE BUFFALO BICYCLE MADE UP TO 25% MORE DELIVERIES PER MONTH, DELIVERED 23% MORE MILK, INCREASED THEIR MONTHLY INCOME BY 23%, AND REDUCED TRAVEL TIME TO THE COOPERATIVE BY 45%. IN ADDITION, 95% OF FARMERS SURVEYED CITED USING THE BUFFALO BICYCLE TO BETTER THEIR LIVES. MAINTENANCE EVEN THE MOST ROBUST BICYCLE NEEDS REGULAR MAINTENANCE AND OCCASIONAL SPARE PARTS TO KEEP IT ROLLING OVER RUGGED TERRAIN. IT'S IMPORTANT THAT BICYCLE OWNERS HAVE ACCESS TO LOCAL, QUALIFIED REPAIR SERVICE THEY CAN COUNT ON. TO THIS END, WBR OPERATES A FIELD MECHANIC TRAINING PROGRAM. TRAINING CONSISTS OF A THREE- TO FIVE-DAY SESSION FOCUSING ON BUSINESS SKILLS AND THE PROPER ASSEMBLY, MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR OF THE BIKE. FIELD MECHANICS ENTER INTO A SERVICE-TO-OWN CONTRACT WHEREBY THEY PLEDGE TO PROVIDE REPAIR SUPPORT TO THE BICYCLES FOR EDUCATIONAL EMPOWERMENT PROGRAM (BEEP) OR OTHER INITIATIVES FOR AN AGREED PERIOD OF TIME. EACH SUCCESSFULLY TRAINED MECHANIC RECEIVES A BICYCLE, A SET OF HIGH QUALITY BICYCLE TOOLS, A UNIFORM AND MARKETING MATERIALS. TO DATE, 1,960 BICYCLE MECHANICS HAVE BENEFITED FROM TRAINING AND EMPLOYMENT, WHILE CONTRIBUTING TO THE ECONOMIC INFRASTRUCTURE OF THEIR VILLAGES.
