onbikes
Drew Weatherford: Co-Founder and Board Emeritus
onbikes is a Tampa based non-profit organization that was formed in 2011 when a group of friends organized a community bike ride during the winter holiday season to raise funds so at-risk kids could receive their very first bike. It was an incredible success, and it was then that onbikes was born. At onbikes they are simply doing their part in restoring the self-confidence, health, and overall well-being of at-risk kids in our community.
They are currently experiencing incredible growth as news of our annual events and our cause spread throughout the local community. With the unprecedented support of our sponsors and riders, they are on target to deliver more bikes to at-risk and foster kids than ever before.
They have seen the expression these kids faces when they receive a bike. It might sound simple, but something so small as a bike makes a very real difference in the world of a child.
They work everyday to make onbikes a lifestyle, not just an organization. Their hope is that each person who experiences onbikes picks up our “giving is better than receiving” philosophy because they are committed to serving the community around us. They are on a mission to positively impact the children, families, and communities we live in.
