John Weiss presents Kids on Bikes Executive Director Lindsey Arkfeld with a BIG check from teh Indy GIVE! Campaign.

The grand total is in! Thanks to our generous donors Kids on Bikes received a total of $7,384.77 from the Indy GIVE! Campaign.  What does that mean? It means 50 new bikes, helmets, and locks that will bring joy to children in the Pikes Peak Region. 

The inaugural Indy GIVE! Campaign raised a total of $198,698.59 with 2,577 unique donors for 29 local non-profits. To put that in perspective, when Portland, Oregon launched its first GIVE! Campaign they raised $22,000 their first year- 2004.  This year  they raised an amazing $918,094.20 with 3,098 donors. You can see the potential for growth and invite you to participate again next year! Thanks again to those of you who supported Kids on Bikes and 28 other worthy nonprofits to create a stronger Colorado Springs community.

And  thank you to John Weiss, Publisher of the  Colorado Springs Independent, The Independent Staff, and a plethora of local partners who made it possible.(Picture Courtesy Cayton Photography)
