Do you have a nice bicycle to donate to EBBC?

Offering a prize at events where EBBC is contracted to provide Valet Bicycle Parking (VBP) is a proven way to build EBBC’s membership clout. At the recent Lakefest at Lakeshore we awarded Rosa Lúa a Cannondale road bike that cost us $280 to refurbish. It was a great investment! Not only do bicycle prizes attract a steady stream of eager new members to our table, but event organizers also appreciate the buzz that we bring to events.
Please call EBBC’s Fruitvale Office (510-533-RIDE) to let us know if you have a special bicycle you can donate that is worthy of display with a minimum of repair. Because of our bicycle & transit promotion, folding bikes are dear to our hearts. Plus, most people don’t already have a folding bike, they adjust to fit most anyone, and they are easy to store!
Upcoming events that will have an EBBC VBP corral include: Art & Soul (Labor Day weekend); Solano Stroll (Sept 14); Walnut Festival (Sept 21); Out & About Rockridge (Sept 28); and Dimond Oktoberfest (Oct 4).
EBBC is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Your donations are fully tax deductable.
