This is a nice project.
There are a bunch of similar type "one bike per african" type projects.
Project Rwanda, mentioned above is a good one, with some great carg bike projects:

Kona/Rodale's Africabike program:

which are simple bikes made for long haul travel for aid workers. They used to have a buy one give two deal, but I think they just take donations.
