I think that you can pass the bike along to the co-worker with a clear conscience if this is the case.

You are making her a generous offer. Perhaps you could offer to show/help her to perform some of the other replacements if she buys the parts. Brake pads, for example, are cheap and easy to replace. If she has some of her money and work in the bike she will likely appreciate it more and take better care of it. Perhaps with reliable transportation she will be able to get a better job which will help her not to be so broke
