Blackstone Bicycle Works alumni continue to make academic and professional advancements in the years after graduating from our program (and outgrowing their aprons!). For almost a decade, Blackstone Bicycle Works–with the support of a valued funder–has awarded scholarships to dedicated BBW alumni toward their postsecondary education. We are proud to join in celebrating their accomplishments:

Two college scholarship recipients received funding in 2021-2022 for their post-secondary education, while two of our former scholarship recipients moved on to employment in the non-profit and health sectors.

Our current scholarship recipients are attending Whitman College and North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University, studying philosophy and film, and biology/forensics, respectively.

Other BBW alumni are working as mechanics in local bike businesses, as employees in bike share and bicycle component companies, and have transferred their skills from bikes to automotive repair.
