Bike & Build

From the bottom of our hearts, a giant THANK YOU to the entire B&B community these past two decades. Thank you for saying yes, for giving it your all, for finding out something about yourself, and for helping others do the same. You helped make Bike & Build what it was these past 20 years.

When the decision was made to sunset the organization, one of the top priorities was to find a way to best ensure the longevity of B&B’s legacy long after the organization had closed. After exploring multiple options and opportunities, we believe we have found a partner that aligns with the essence of what made B&B tick. So while this message serves as our official “goodbye” it is also a first “hello!”. The Field Academy is a semester school committed to examining the nation through social justice. They seek to connect, engage, empower, and educate young people by exploring the United States.

We encourage you to read more of our final goodbye and more about Field Academy here: https://bikeandbuild.org/about/sunsetting/

Thank you again. We ❤️ you.

Today, we honor Patrick Wanninkhof, a dedicated teacher and passionate trip leader, who we lost 8 years ago. He'll be forever missed ❤️

New friends 😭 💛
