100 Black Men of Madison brings a family in June 2020 to receive bikes from Free Bikes 4 Kidz.

Many of us have likely been doing some general tidying-up of the household while spending more time at home. Perhaps during that time you noticed an extra bike or two around the place that you planned to fix up someday, or maybe one of the kids grew out of. Free Bikes 4 Kidz can use those extra wheels and is hosting contactless drop-off points for donations in Fitchburg, Madison, Monona, Oregon, Sun Prairie and Verona (see below for specifics). They also welcome children's book donations for Madison Reading Project (guidelines here). For the most up-to-date location list, visit the Facebook event.

press release: Despite whatever COVID-19 deals out, we are going for it! We are committed to making our 2021 giveaway season happen! So, on Saturday, November 7, we have numerous organizations that will be hosting bike donation stations for us around the area. Sites are open for contactless donations on Saturday, November 7 between 12pm-3pm. Contactless donations means that you'll have to unload your bikes and set them in the designated area. Look for the FB4K sign at each location! If you have a lot of bikes you'd like to donate, please email us (kristie@fb4kmadison.org) and we'll coordinate a drop off at our workshop.   

Will you help us spread the word? Share our posts on social media, tell your friends, or volunteer to help haul bikes on November 7!

If you don't have a bike to donate but still want to help, financial donations are just as important as bike donations! We have to buy parts and pay mechanics to refurbish the bikes. It costs us about $100 to give a bike, helmet, headlight and taillight away. You can make a donation online here: https://fb4kmadison.org/donate/
