Got a bike or a sewing machine collecting dust? Set it free to bring hope and opportunity to someone in the developing world. Bring it to the annual Pedals for Progress collection sponsored by members of the Green Mountain Returned Peace Corps Volunteers. Since 1999, we've shipped more than 3,000 bikes and 100 sewing machines from Chittenden County to self-help projects on 5 continents.
WHEN: Saturday, September 26th, 9am - 1pm
WHERE: Parking lot of Faith United Methodist Church, 899 Dorset Street, South Burlington
DONATION: We request a tax-deductible $10 donation with each bike or sewing machine to help defray the cost of shipping. You will receive a receipt for $10 plus the value of the donated item.
No bike or sewing machine to donate? Like us on Facebook at Pedals for Progress Vermont; spread the word about the event to co-workers and friends; or volunteer your help on the 26th.
