🔧 Philly Bike Action fixed up 30+ neighbors’ bikes for free last weekend at repair clinics in South and North Philly!

We also gave away 3 sets of bikes, helmets, and locks to neighborhood kids at Historic Fairhill's Joy & Wellness Festival.

Thanks to our neighborhood partners @homies.helping.homies and @historic_fh for working with us and to @keystone.bike and @transportcycles for providing the chains, tubes, and more to make this happen.

👋 Want us to run a bike repair clinic in your neighborhood? Want to volunteer to run a clinic? Check out bikeaction.org/events and speak with an organizer at a PBA District Meeting in your area, or reach out to us via email at info@bikeaction.org taken in Historic Fair Hill by @historic_fh

Our full staff came together for a beautiful morning yesterday under the trees! We had an open fire breakfast with Derek, a history trivia contest and mural tour with Kerry, and Monique led everyone in garden crafts that can be used outdoors and in the classroom! #fairhill #community #literacy #gardening #learning taken in Historic Fair Hill by @historic_fh
