1,351 bikes received thanks to the ABC15 2nd Chance Bike Drive!
Over 1,300 bikes were collected for the ABC15 2nd Chance Bike Drive in partnership with Earnhardt Auto Centers, benefiting St. Vincent de Paul. This was the result of dedication, generosity, and a shared belief in the power of a single bike.
Our partners and community stepped forward, understanding that a bike can mean the difference between unemployment and employment, attending school or staying home, retrieving groceries or going hungry, accessing vital health care or going without treatment.
"We are very grateful for the incredible support that made this year's 2nd Chance Bike Drive a success," said Shannon Clancy, SVdP's Rob & Melani Walton Endowed CEO. "This collective effort truly reflects the heart of our community and shows how something as simple as a bike can transform lives and bring people together."
St. Vincent de Paul is deeply grateful for the success of this year's 2nd Chance Bike Drive. It took the generosity of people from across the Valley to make this bike drive total possible, ensuring that SVdP shelter residents and guests in need of a bike, have reliable and affordable transportation to help them peddle forward to a brighter future.
