En su último reto comunitario para Bicicletas Sin Fronteras*, Caminantes de Estrellas colaboró difundiendo el reto y aportando su granito de arena para fomentar la educación, el desarrollo y la integración de los más desfavorecidos. La Bici es Bella recorrió entre varias personas más de 10.000 kilómetros to transform them into 10,000 euros and thus be able to provide bicycles to the students of the Loul Sessene School,in Senegal.. Caminantes de Estrellas hizo también su aportación para cumplir este sueño, que ya es una realidad.
Bicicletas Sin Fronteras is an organization that works to improve the quality of life of people who are in less-favored situations using the bicycle as a tool of integration and equal opportunitiesUnder the slogan: "We don't give bikes, we change lives" they want to combat school absenteeismas well as bring more happiness, more future and more opportunities to the children who receive the bikes. They also benefit from getting more time to study, play and grow. We believe and are partakers of alchemy that transforms small actions into great opportunities.
