Bike Saviours

History

In November 2006, Bike Saviours Bicycle Collective was founded by Allison Karow. After living in different U.S. cities that already had bicycle collectives, she noticed the need in the Phoenix area for a place for people to donate old bikes, fix their own bikes, and learn how to build bikes as well as bike safely. With her backyard and a few of her own tools on lend, she began building the federally-recognized non-profit community education collective. Eventually, Bike Saviours expanded out of her backyard and into a commercial space. With the help of community donations and support, Bike Saviours helps save hundreds of bikes each year.
