Bikes For Christmas: OVER 130 BIKES!

Dear Mr. Albero,


Thank you so much for your support of the Bikes for Christmas drive! When I sent you our original message a week ago, we had 30 bicycles. Thanks to your support, we are now over 130 bicycles! The Daily Times and WMDT have also done stories on our drive in the last week and we have received tremendous support from the community. Today the Kindergarten class at our school presented us with a brand new bicycle. They decided to cancel their gift exchange and instead each chose to do chores around the house and use the money they made to come together to buy two brand new bicycles for kids in need. We are still accepting donations of used and new bicycles & helmets through tomorrow December 18 and plan to have the bikes distributed by December 23. Thanks again for your support!

The local media is copying stories from you almost daily Joe. I think its great that rather then you complaining about it, you recognize the good it delivers to so many in need.

Joe,
Can you repost the Bikes for Christmas details, as in where to donate until tomorrow?
