BIKING FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING!

BIKING FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING!
32 bikers from all over the country pedaled into Provo last week to help us with construction and landscaping at our Brimhall Estates project in Provo . The bikers are part of the national Bike & Build program and are riding their bikes across the country to raise funding and awareness to end poverty housing. The students and recent college graduates started their long journey in Charleston, South Carolina in late May and will log over 4,000 miles before they reach their destination of Santa Cruz, California in early August. The group has already raised over $148,000 for their cause. This is the second year the biking organization has assisted the local Habitat affiliate with its construction efforts. We appreciate their incredible service on behalf of affordable housing! Special thanks also to the Provo Community Church hosting these hardworking volunteers.
