“Better Bicycling Community” Grant
August 30, 2012
Performance Bicycle®, the nation’s largest independent cycling retailer, announced in early August the winners of “Better Bicycling Community” grants. Ten community organizations from across America were chosen to receive a $3,000 grant to support local efforts in making cycling more accessible.
From rejuvenating a mountain bike trail to raising support for better bike lane infrastructure, each grant will address a critical local cycling need. In the Northwest, the Cascade Bicycle Club Education Foundation’s Advocacy Leadership Institute project will empower community leaders with the tools, knowledge and confidence they need to run and win campaigns of various types and scales. The program will leverage Cascade’s resources while also fostering the community buy-in that will lead to improvements to bicycling infrastructure on the ground in Seattle and throughout the Puget Sound region.
The grants will be administered in collaboration with the Alliance for Biking & Walking.
