Greeting Friends, 

Attached are four things--the first two docs you didn't ask for but they are cool. It is a zine we made for our shop as we distinguish ourselves as a resiliency hub. It's our attempt to explain what a resiliency hub is. 

The 3rd and 4th things are our End of Year appeal and remittance envelope. The end of year appeal has quantifiable data and a capital campaign update. We usually do a few impact stories in here but the campaign took up that spot this year. Under my signature is a blank space in which we write personalized messages to our top 200 donors. We send out about 1600 of these. The front is a poster designed by a local artist that we print out in letterpress form by a local printmaker for all our volunteers and $150+ donors. 

Think of you all always.

Howdy, all!

Tis' grant application season and we at the Street Collective are busy as elves begging Santa for decent wages and sanitary working conditions! Something that comes up regularly is that major donors want to see quantitative data about our impacts on the community as part of their grant application processes. We've talked about follow-up surveys, but I wanted to know if other organizations have tried to gather hard data about how bikes have helped their clients.

Thanks in advance!

-Bobby
