We have had tremendous success sending a letter to area churches and asking them to include the request in their church bulletin and/or announce it during their services. This always generates an up-tick in donated bikes.

Hi all! My collective is planning to make 8-1/2 x 11" (or similar size) flyer to post on public bulletin boards and publicize that we collect bicycles and put them to good use. I know at least some other bike collectives use flyers, and it'd be super helpful to see what works and what doesn't in terms of design and what we should say. Would anyone be willing to scan and send over a couple?
Thank you!
