Second Cycle relies on the generous support of our community, and right now, your donation can make an immediate difference!
Power for the Pedals Campaign
As of November 1st, we’re proud to share that, through our Pedal it Forward program, we have provided 273 instances of free or discounted bike repairs and given away 12 bikes through Pedal for the People—adding up to a $9,825 investment in our community. These services are helping people stay connected to work, school, and their daily needs. We’re now asking our community to help us continue this vital work into next year.
Campaign Goal: $10,000
We are running a campaign to raise $10,000 to keep Pedal for the People and Pedal it Forward going strong. These programs enable us to offer bike repairs and bikes themselves to people who need them most, whether that’s for someone who can’t afford a bike but needs transportation or an individual who needs essential repairs to keep riding safely.
How Your Gift Helps:
Your donation empowers these programs, providing free or discounted repairs and bikes to people who depend on them. Every dollar you give directly impacts our ability to support the community and keep Tacoma rolling.
