Hey All,
We're going to try something different this year by reaching out to local churches and religious organizations to collect bikes.  Last year we had an unsolicited young man collect bikes for us as part of his confirmation.  This was awesome and he collected about 40 bikes for us. 

I'm drafting a letter to send out to religious orgs in the county asking them to collect bikes for us.  My goal is to find out what service projects the institutions already have in place, like confirmation, and see if we can piggy back those projects with bike collections.

Have any of you worked with religious orgs to collect bikes?  Please share any words of wisdom you might have.

Thx

Ride On!
