Give Aloha

Until Biki fare revenue hits a certain threshold and the initial equipment purchase is paid off, Bikeshare Hawaii will continue to be funded entirely by grants and donations from organizations and individuals. These contributions support our work in planning and designing the system and targeted programs in alignment with city and state initiatives and community priorities. Some of the ways that our small team of three use resources to accomplish this are: 

• Hosting more than 70 free workshops and tutorials with nearly 600 participants to date
• Launching a new Access Program for income-qualifying residents 
• Targeting residential areas for site placement (Manoa, Makiki, Iwilei) to serve the local community
• Speaking at neighborhood board meetings, schools, workplaces and public events to educate and inform our residents about the environmental, economic and health benefits that bikeshare brings to a community. Targeted outreach with seniors, youth, public housing, and community health centers. 
• Developing partnerships that support local non-profits like Meals on (Biki) Wheels) and Biki Street Art Tours
• Advocating for complete streets and increased and improved bike infrastructure
