Here is a recent article from the Province newspaper in Vancouver. Very impressive.

Yesterday I found myself reflecting on our bike collection efforts. Interesting stat- 5 bikes (or almost 1% of a container) came from my immediate neighbours. So if 100 people collected bikes for donation from their neighbours we would have 500 bikes? Sounds easy, doesn't it?
We send your unwanted bikes to developing countries. Our work supports grassroots projects that improve access to healthcare, education, water, food, and employment. Help us empower the world's poorest people. Donate your old bike. Make a financial donation to "sponsor" a bike. Volunteer. Change lives. We are 100% volunteer and all funds go directly to shipping costs.
