PITCH-IN CANADA Week

2011 PITCH-IN CANADA Week
April 18 - 25

A UNIQUE PITCH-IN WEEK PROJECT!
PITCH-IN CANADA is partnering with Bicycles for Humanity to REUSE AND RECYCLE those old bikes.
 
The Nuts ‘n Bolts:

1. Interested PITCH-IN co-coordinators are encouraged to visit www.bicycles-for-humanity.org to locate a Chapter of Bicycles for Humanity closest to them
    

2. Working together, B4H Chapters and the PITCH-IN CANADA Co-Coordinators will promote the bicycle collections to take place at the same time as the PITCH-IN CANADA event.
    

3. PITCH-IN participants will be encouraged to bring their used bikes to one central location.
    

4. At these central locations, B4H Chapter members will receive the used bicycles, and arrange storage and shipping to their partners in Africa, providing transportation and employment opportunities.  

For more information about B4H go to their website, www.bicycles-for-humanity.org!
 
If you undertake a PITCH-IN/B4H project, please send us your story with pictures. We would like to feature it in our 2010 Newsletter!
 
Please Note:    PITCH-IN CANADA cannot organize local bicycle collections;
                       all arrangements must be made with the local B4H Chapter.
