THE PROBLEM

Watsonville is a rural agricultural town on the Central Coast of California. There are many farmworkers and families here who need rides to work. Also, there is a lot of obesity in the community and not many jobs for youth. The Watsonville Bike Shack teaches people how to fix their bike each Friday at the Farmer’s Market. We have a space in the market and we provide tools and instruction to people on fixing their bikes. Also, we promote healthy living and bike riding to people of all ages. We give at least three bikes away each week. We accept donated bikes from the community and fix them up and give them back for free or at a very low cost.

WHY IT’S IMPORTANT

We pay 3 youth to train as bike mechanics. That provides a job and training in a skill that can be used to get a better job in the future. We also give away and promote bike riding which helps stop obesity in our families. The Bike Shack also helps people with transportation so they can get to work on time and be safe.
