A bicycle is meant for recreational rides or for rides to develop physical fitness for the children and adults from well-to-do families based in cities.
For the underprivileged, a cycle is a very useful means of transport since it requires very little maintenance and there are no running costs.
Used bicycles are often seen dumped in housing society premises because they have broken down or appear old and therefore are not considered stylish.
Children discard an old bicycle when a newer model is given by parents.
The old bicycle donations are intended for poor students in villages whose schools are located at a great distance and whose parents are unable to afford any other medium to go to school than walking.
Many students mainly girl students drop out of school for such reason.

These old bicycles, is collected from Palava and repaired if non-functional and then sent to this school.
