Question: Can you donate a bike to my raffle?
Answer: If you are hosting a free bike raffle as part of a street fair or other event, we can usually donate children's bicycles to be raffled off. In our experience, raffles like this work best when the children have to do something: complete an bike safety class or a fix a flat class, to earn their raffle ticket. Please note that, while we can help identify low cost helmets, we don't have helmets available for donation.

Question: How do I donate a bicycle?
