Charity Events - Make an official donation for a bike

Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes. Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.

Hi,

I know this may not be absolutely kosher to post this here, but I am raising funds for the Douglas Hospital in Montreal for children with mental illnesses.

I am riding the Montreal Tour de Ile on Sunday June 7th with my gf (50km) with the Douglas hospital team. See link for my name (Renaud Daenzer) in the list at the following site: http://www.douglas.qc.ca/news/details.asp?l=e&ty=c&id=538&yr=2009&

This week I restored a woman speed bike (Avant Garde) in hopes of giving it to the highest donation (official tax deductible form provided). Please see this link for my ad:

Im not really looking to sell it here (i know its badly regarded in the forums) but i was just hopeing you readers could help spread the word. in case you knew someone in the montreal area which could use a ladies bike and wished to make a donation at the same time.


Thanks a lot for your time reading and your support,

Renaud.

Heres a pic of the bike in question:

I also have official douglas hospital (tax deductible) forms for interested donators.

This is just an initiative that I thought about since the whole event in itself is bike related.


Thank you.

Renaud.

I moved this to the Charities Subforum, where it's more appropriate. Good luck.
