PEDALING FOR HUMANITY!

Cyclists from all around the country once again pedaled into Provo this past weekend to help Habitat for Humanity of Utah County with the restoration and renovation of the George Taylor, Jr. Home in Provo.

The volunteers worked hard removing asphalt and sod, building windows, and restoring brick and trim at the historic home.

The SC2SC cyclists 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 33 young adults started their long journey in Charleston, South Carolina in May and will log over 4,000 miles before they reach their destination of Santa Cruz, California in mid-August. This is the sixth time that cyclists fromthis program have volunteered with the local Habitat affiliate.

Special thanks to the Provo Seventh Day-Adventist Church, Zach Vegge, Gandolfos, and El Azteca Mexican Taco Shop for helping to make these dedicated volunteers feel welcome during their visit to Provo!
