HJF is a 501c3 non-profit incorporated in the District of Columbia. We believe in mastering bicycle maintenance as a means of empowering underserved populations to achieve self-reliance, employability, transportation, improved health, community and personal well-being.

HJF strives to improve the lives of young people from lower income households by building bridges to the local bicycling community in the DC metro area. We promote activities and programs that build life skills, encourage physical health, and promote positive values.

Who We Serve

Our main mission is to work with middle school and high-school students with special outreach to ensure equal participation by women and girls. We teach safe riding and bicycle maintenance skills in schools and throughout the community.

We run clinics and workshops for adults and families, at community centers, partnering with other non-profits, and through employer sponsored programs.
