B.E.N – Bicycle Empowerment Network

B.E.N Namibia is a non profit organization based in Windhoek, the capital of Namibia. Their main work is bicycle distribution. They import donated new and secondhand bikes, parts and accessories from overseas partner organizations and refurbish them by employing and training local people in bike mechanics. They distribute bicycles to community-based organizations (CBOs) whose volunteers and staff use them to greatly improve the efficiency of their work.

  • We support groups that want to support their communities with honesty, accountability and entrepreneurial spirit as the foundation.
  • We tell their story to everyone in the developed world and support all who want to partner with the people of Africa to make a difference.

  • We let each and every voice who cares, contributes and adds value tell their story in their words.
  • We encourage all to work as a team to support the people of Africa.
