[*BCM*] Coming soon: Bike and Build!

[Brooke J.]

Hi hi hi bikers alike,

A quick pitch:

My name is Brooke Jarrett, and I'm biking across the country this summer to
raise money and build houses with an organization called Bike and Build.
Basically, we (30 students) bike from town to town for two months, giving
presentations about our trip and building houses on sites with groups like
Neighborworks, COVER, and Habitat for Humanity.

Each rider is responsible for 4,000 dollars in fundraising. I leave from
Providence, RI in a day and a week. I've already collected a mad 3,000 but am
in crunch mode to finish up the rest of my fundraising. Ways you can help:

AT CRITICAL MASS: I'll be at Copley around 4:45pm before the ride, wearing a
brightly colored orange sweatshirt and some ridiculous hat collecting funds in
a helmet. Please look for me if you are interested in sponsoring the trip! I'll
have plenty of brochures in case you're unsure or want more information. You can
also e-mail me at jbrookles at gmail.com

ONLINE: If you won't be able to make it, check out www.bikeandbuild.org for more
information or to make an online donation.



Until then...
