[Bikecoop-announce] Support The Bike Project This Giving Tuesday 🔧🚲❤️

[Phillip Ernstmeyer]

Dear Bike Project community,

For Giving Tuesday, please consider making a donation to The Bike Project
of Urbana-Champaign. Our goal is to raise $5,000 by the end of the year!

In 2022, The Bike Project's volunteers have been rebuilding our
cooperatively owned community bike shop after the prolonged closures caused
by COVID in 2020 and 2021. In the last year, we

🔧 expanded open hours from one day to four, and resumed WTFNB (Women,
Trans, Femme, and Nonbinary) Night on the second Monday of each month
🔧 gave away 60 kids bikes in December 2021 during our annual holiday Kids
Bike Giveaway (which we're also currently organizing for 2022)
🔧 refurbished kids bikes for the children of immigrant families at Leal
Elementary School
🔧 fundraised for high-quality lights and locks for Afghan refugees, in
collaboration with The Refugee Center
🔧 raised funds for and distributed bike lights to underserved CU
communities and coordinated with community partners to provide continued
access to them
🔧 rebuilt a commuter bike for a community member who had lost theirs in an
accident, in partnership with Cunningham Township
🔧 donated 200+ bicycles to Working Bikes to provide communities in South
and Central America and Africa with access to bikes and parts
🔧 organized community spring and summer rides

But, even with our volunteers hustling and building bikes to keep the shop
open, we need your help meeting our bottom line for the year and keeping
our momentum going into 2023.
