ABC15 2nd Chance Bike Drive
A bike plays an essential role in the lives of the people we serve at St. Vincent de Paul. It improves access to healthcare, education, economic opportunities, and physical and mental health. Make a difference in the life of a community member in need today by supporting the ABC15 2nd Chance Bike Drive.
Beginning September 1 and continuing through the end of September, ABC15 and Earnhardt Auto Centers will be raising awareness and donations around the need for new and used bicycles at SVdP. A bike can be the difference between unemployment and employment, going to school or not, retrieving groceries or going hungry, accessing health care or going without treatment. That’s why every bike donation counts, because each bike is an opportunity to improve someone’s life.

Our skilled volunteers fix dozens of bikes everyday, which helps to fund our mission
Thanks to the extreme generosity of our community, especially that of the ABC15 Second Chance Bike Drive, SVdP receives hundreds of bikes a year. But what do we do with those bikes, you might ask?
Bike donations are processed through SVdP's volunteer-run-state-of-the-art Bike Shop, which has refurbished 80 bikes every month for the past 13 years. Monetary donations will be used to purchase supplies to repair gently used bicycles. In addition to providing bikes to people in need, the bike shop also fosters community and skill development by allowing residents from SVdP's transitional housing facilities and volunteers to gain valuable experience refurbishing bikes to be sold at affordable prices at SVdP's thrift stores. The funding generated through the sales of bikes go directly to support SVdP’s programs and services.
