Qhubeka is a non-profit organization that raises funds for the donation of bicycles to children and caregivers in developing communities, who have no transport and have to walk long distances to school. In South Africa, of the 16 million children that go to school, 12 million walk to school. Of these, 500 000 walk more than 2 hours each way!

What makes the project unique is that the bicycles are not merely handed over to the communities. Qhubeka finances about 75% of the cost of the bicycle, while the recipient has to provide or earn the other 25%.  This gives them a better sense of ownership and involvement.

The initiative has not only distributed some 40 000 bikes since it was launched in 2004, but it has also reduced the cost of children's school commuting by 75% in the communities it services; reduced the sports infrastructure cost per child by 90%; increased micro-finance loan recipient earnings by 500%, and increased healthcare worker visits to orphans and vulnerable children by 400%

Qhubeka is a Nguni word that means “To carry on”, “To continue”, “To progress”, “To move forward”
