  • The Community Cycling Center, founded in 1994, helps broaden access to bicycling and its benefits through our hands-on programs, volunteer projects, and neighborhood bike shop.

    The Beginning

    The Community Cycling Center started as an idea to help children in the Vernon and King neighborhoods of NE Portland. The kids rode the streets on broken down bikes and had little access to structured activities. The Community Cycling Center first opened shop in a small, run-down space on NE Alberta Street as “A Bicycle Riding and Repair School for Kids.”

    With boarded up windows and one bike stand, the little bike school offered a unique opportunity to those children: we would teach them to fix their bikes if they would sit, watch, and learn so the next time they could do the work themselves and teach their friends.

  • a nonprofit group asks:

    "We would like to conduct a social impact study of our members that  illustrate the programmatic impact nonprofits have on the community. We have been able to find reports for the economic impact of nonprofits, but not a compilation of their social impact, their program benchmarks, as it were. Do you know of any reports or organizations that are doing this kind of work that we could link with or use their survey work?"

    Indeed, we have extensive information here:

    Social Impact of Nonprofits
    Philanthropy and Social Impact
