Fox Community Credit Union has asked its members to donate gently used or new kids and adult bikes during their Pedal It Forward drive. They donate those bikes back to nonprofits or organizations who can put them to good use. Special Olympics Wisconsin has been a recipient of some of the donated bikes. We are so grateful to be able to pass out free bikes to some of our athletes and families! Thank you Fox Community Credit Union for thinking of us! We have some very happy families thanks to you! We have a few bikes still available at our Appleton office. If you are interested in a bike please reach out to [email protected] to schedule a pick up time.
