Description	In mid-2009, WBR launched an education focused initiative called the Bicycles for Educational Empowerment Program (BEEP), which is designed to improve education outcomes for rural students in Sub-Saharan Africa. The program uses the power of bicycles to help improve school attendance and academic performance; bicycle recipients are chosen based on distance to school, with preference given to students in need, particularly female students. Students with bikes arrive to school safe and ready to learn. Initial results from the program show grades and attendance increasing while child pregnancy and other health risks such as HIV/AIDS rates are decreasing. Bicycle supervisory committees select those students most in need and then oversee their bicycle usage. Every recipient receives basic training about bicycle maintenance and safety, and signs a contract of commitment when receiving his or her bike. In 2011, WBR distributed about 7,500 bicycles and trained about 90 mechanics through BEEP.	Description

Description	World Bicycle Relief's (WBR) social enterprise program is an economic development initiative launched to fill the gap for high quality, culturally appropriate bicycles in the developing world. Non-governmental organizations and aid organizations addressing education, healthcare and economic development, as well as individual entrepreneurs across Africa have turned to World Bicycle Relief's expertise in bicycle design to address their need for simple, sustainable transportation. Distribution of WBR bicycles through our social enterprise program helps these organizations and individuals accomplish their goals efficiently. Some examples of organizations using our bicycles to achieve their missions include UNICEF, CARE, World Vision, Catholic Relief Services, and the World Food Programme. In 2011, this program was expanded to Kenya, Zimbabwe, and South Africa, in addition to Zambia. In 2011, WBR distributed 14,300 bicycles and trained 16 mechanics through the Social Enterprise program.	Description

UNCERTAIN TAX POSITION (FIN 48)	Schedule D, Part X, Line 2	World Bicycle Relief was organized and incorporated in Illinois as a Not-for-Profit Organization in 2006. The organization has received a favorable determination letter from the IRS Determination Letter for their Section 501(c)(3) status under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the IRC). The FASB issued guidance that requires tax effects from uncertain tax position to be recognized in the financial statements only if the position is more likely than not to be sustained if the position were to be challenged by a taxing authority. Management has determined there are no material uncertain positions that require recognition in the financial statements. The tax years ending 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011 are still open to audit for both federal and state purposes.
