Mission: Our mission is to support safety and wellness of cyclists and outdoor recreationalists in our local communities by creating programs, building infrastructure and providing funding.
What are you fundraising for this year?
We recently opened a Community Bike Center which provides much needed space and tools for locals and tourists to work on their bikes, order parts and have access to bike mechanics. Our volunteers also refurbish bikes for adults and kids in the community for free or by donation. We have recently moved into a full-time indoor location at the Roosevelt Center. Funding will help us continue to buy tools, pay rent, host clinics, and get more community members on bikes!
What impact will funds have on your mission and community?
Our Community has been void of a bike shop. Not only will this funding help continue the Community Bike Center operations, it is making recreation and transportation more accessible for all community members. Having the space and tools to work on your own bike (and the expertise to teach you) is so important. Funding also helps us to provide space for a part-time bike mechanic to have a small business, keeping bicycles out of landfills, and hosting clinics.
If you participated last year, what did you use the funds for?
This is our first year as a benefiting charity!
Fundraising Goal: $2,000
