 Bucks 4 Bikes!
Hey Challenge Riders can you help the Coalition raise funds to purchase bikes, bike helmets and educational materials to reverse the trend of childhood obesity and associated diseases from living a chronic sedentary lifestyle with diets high in fat? You can see above that so far we have only received $64.50 in the Bucks 4 Bikes pledges and there are 456 registered riders. If you each just pledged $10.00 that would equal $4,560 and we could really make a difference in our youth. Do you remember your first bike and who gave it to you? Of course you do and bicycling continues in your life today. Make a pledge or donation and help our youth get on the right path to a life of health, fitness and caring about each other and the environment. ALL FUNDS go to purchase bikes and helmets. |
