Charity Used Bike Collection

The Potomac School of McLean, VA will sponsor a used bicycle collection on Saturday, May 21, from 9 – 11:30 a.m., to benefit Bikes for the World.  BftW is a non-profit organization that collects thousands of unwanted bicycles for donation and re-use in developing countries.  Overseas, the bikes will provide essential and affordable transportation for workers, students, farmers, and small businesspeople. The collection will be held in the parking lot of Trinity United Methodist Church at 1205 Dolley Madison Parkway in McLean. Each donor is asked to contribute $10 per bicycle to help defray shipping, processing, and distribution costs.
