Belt­Line Bike Shop exists to teach kids the value of hard work, goal set­ting and respect by reward­ing com­mu­nity ser­vice with some­thing tan­gi­ble and valu­able, while build­ing pos­i­tive rela­tion­ships with adult role models.

Belt­Line Bike Shop vision: To see the lives of youth who may be at risk of falling through the cracks, grow up to become suc­cess­ful lead­ers with pur­pose, char­ac­ter and con­fi­dence. And it all starts with a bike.

Spotlight on Our Partner: PATH Foundation

The PATH Foun­da­tion is cel­e­brat­ing 20 years of build­ing a net­work of off-road trails in and around Atlanta for walk­ers, run­ners, cyclists and skaters. This sys­tem of scenic green­ways pre­serve our region’s forested char­ac­ter and offer oppor­tu­ni­ties for fam­i­lies to enjoy nature together.

Pub­lic sup­port for the PATH Foun­da­tion con­tin­ues to grow. With a lean and effi­cient admin­is­tra­tive struc­ture, PATH spends more than 90 per­cent of the dona­tions it receives on trail build­ing, demon­strat­ing its abil­ity to com­plete projects on sched­ule, under bud­get, while lever­ag­ing sig­nif­i­cant pub­lic funding.

PATH trails enhance com­mu­nity spirit and bring neigh­bor­hoods together. Each day, thou­sands of jog­gers, walk­ers, bik­ers and skaters from all walks of life escape the roads and hit the trails for travel and recre­ation. The demand for trails has increased dra­mat­i­cally as our cit­i­zens look for safer ways to exer­cise, recre­ate and recon­nect with their neighbors.

PATH has made sig­nif­i­cant progress toward build­ing Geor­gia a net­work of trails, includ­ing: The Sil­ver Comet, Stone Moun­tain, Lionel Hamp­ton, West­side, Ara­bia Moun­tain, Chas­tain Park, Nancy Creek, Whet­stone Creek, South Decatur Trol­ley, North­west Atlanta, and Free­dom Park Trails.
