Green Chile Bike Bank is a fully volunteer-run 501(c)(3) in Pueblo, Colorado. We have both core volunteers and rotating volunteers who help make things run smoothly in the shop and behind the scenes.
We are a group of cyclists with a purpose. Most of us have worked in social services for people experiencing homelessness and economic insecurity, or did experience that ourselves, or both. We know the importance of a safe, sturdy bicycle when other forms of transit are inaccessible. We know the utility, and beauty, and just plain fun of a well-tuned bike.

History
Since beginning work, we’ve restored or overhauled and distributed more than 650 bikes for Puebloans as of Feb 2023, performed hundreds and hundreds of minor repairs and adjustments, and provided tools, time, and advice for bike owners to make their own repairs. We’ve worked with partner organizations in cycling advocacy, community engagement, and poverty relief to get bikes out to those who need them, and to get tools and know-how into the community.
Services Offered
The Bike Bank refurbishes donated bicycles and makes them available to qualified recipients with a referral from designated partner organizations. Please see the GCBB website for information on receiving a donated bike.
