Money for our Movements conference - Register now!
Hi Bike! Bike!
I do fundraising for Streetsblog http://www.streetsblog.org/, the daily news blog for livable streets, and I'm on the committee for the Money for our Movements conference August 2-3 in Baltimore. As a big supporter of community bike shops, I wanted to be sure this group got the invitation. I hope you'll come! It's my goal to get our all our biking and walking organizations to attend. Our movement certainly needs more grassroots funding, but even more than that, we have a lot to learn and share about the power of social justice and inclusion. This conference is focused on that. More details are below.
Individual registrations are $300, but if we get a group of 5 or more people to register together at once, the registration is only $200. Let's do that! We can be the bike contingent. Housing and food are super affordable, and there are scholarships available.
Let me know if you have any questions, and please feel free to spread the word far and wide!
In solidarity, Christa
