As I mentioned in this post asking you for bikes, I plan on keeping you updated on bikes donated towards our goal as well as updates on how our youth programs have been going. So let’s break this down:
Bikes donated since June 29th:
221, So we only have 79 more to go to reach our goal!
Youth Earn-a-Bike:
I’m going to update you on our year-to-date data to get you started before I start updating you week to week. Between January 1st and August 3rd there were 112 bikes earned by youth.
In the past week 8 more bikes have been earned bringing the total to 120 bikes.
Youth Give-a-Way:
The Hub gives away bikes to youth younger than 7 years old since they are too young to begin working with tools. Between January 1st and August 3rd 62 bikes have been given away to youth younger than 7 years old.
In the past week 2 more bikes went out to youth younger than 7 years old.
So that brings us to 64 bikes year to date going out to youth younger than 7 years old.
Community Partnerships:
The Hub often works with other groups like City Year, the Mt. Elliot Makerspace and other groups that work with youth. Sometimes when we can and they ask, we give them bikes. Between January 1st and July 27th we were able to give out 67 bikes that made their way to youth through our partners.
In the past week there haven’t been anymore bikes going out to partners. Heck, if we had the bikes to spare we wouldn’t be doing this drive right?
Total Bikes Earned or Given to Youth so Far This Year:
251
