Ukraine Bicycle Project

This is an American-Ukrainian-Dutch joint initiative. The goal of this project is to build quality transportation bicycles from scratch and deliver them to various service workers, educators and ministry leaders for commuting and transporting in Ukraine. This project began with a call from Andrews University in MI to donate bicycles so students in its sister school in Russia wouldn't have to spend time walking so much. Russian customs refused our container of bicycles so they all went to Ukraine instead. In Doug Fattic - an American bicycle framebuilder - established the Ukraine Bicycle Project. A bicycle shop was set up on the campus of the Ukrainian Humanitarian Institute in Bucha, Ukraine. Since then, a number of Doug's students, framebuilders and various bicycle enthusiasts have traveled to Ukraine to help build frames and assemble bicycles. Framebuilders and bicycle enthusiasts are needed for 2023 goals! Do good for the world while honing your skills. Many builders benefit greatly from the building experience in our shop where they can perfect their technique. Enrollment is ongoing for Doug Fattic Framebuilding Classes in the U.S. Individuals can donate any amount, large or small. Bicycle enthusiasts can get involved by volunteering. Companies can donate bicycle parts and tools.
