The Community Spoke in Boston robbed?!
Hi Think Tankers -
A friend alerted me to this story:
http://bostinno.com/2012/11/14/community-spoke-robbed-boston/
Anyone know any more details? More importantly, can we come together as a community and crowd source some financial support to help get this group back on their feet? Who has contact with The Community Spoke?
-Kylie Walzak
love, peace, and bicycle grease~ your friends at BICAS
That's an awesome idea, Kylie! I've contacted Community Spoke! about your sentiments.

This is so horrible. Talk about stealing directly from your community.
I have extra tools which I could send their way. If you're already talking to them, perhaps you can send info back to the list concerning whether they are ready to accept shipments and where to send?

Hey folks,
I don't work directly with the Spoke! anymore, but it is located at my house. I think they are still figuring out how they want to handle accepting donations etc. (they've gotten a lot of offers, which is awesome!).
Definitely check out their website, as they've written up a great conversation starter about accountability, police and community. http://thecommunityspoke.org/

Hey everyone, My name is Alex and I work with The Community Spoke! Thanks for all the love over the last week. I'm glad to know that this list exists, I hope to use it more often. After our burglary and the subsequent outpouring of support we've decided to accept online donations. If you feel moved to donate, you can visit our website http://www.thecommunityspoke.org and click on the paypal button. If you'd like to donate tools, (usps priority mail flat rate boxes are great for very heavy items) materials, checks (care of Graham Conway) or cash or send postcards and letters (we love pen pals) you can send them to our de facto operating address:
The Community Spoke! 53 Brentwood St. Allston MA 02134
We are all volunteer operated. 100% of financial donations will go to replacing our stolen items or buying tools and consumable materials as well as maintaining our space. If you are local and would like to donate your time, please get in touch. Volunteering goes much further than cash can. Thanks again, I hope that you all have a great winter!
-Alex and TCS!
