Step 1: Register
The bike ride registration fee is $30. This will be payed on your 99 pledges donation page. Once the $30 is payed, it's time to start fundraising! Each biker is expected to raise $50 through their donation page alongside their registration fee.
Step 2: Fundraise
Fundraising is not limited to riders alone! You can still help fundraise to build a Purdue Habitat sponsored home!
LETTER WRITING
A hand written letter to friends and family goes a long way. Briefly describe the ride and how it is a step in building a home for a family in need, and encourage support through donations. |
SOCIAL MEDIA
Social media is a great way to get the word out to a larger population. Be proactive in inviting followers and friends to donate to the cause. Take it one step further by creating a social media challenge. |
GET CREATIVE
Use your skills! Last year, one of our riders raised $250 by making and selling bracelets to friends and family. Crafty ideas include: blankets, bracelets, homemade scrunchies, etc. |
Step 3: Bike Rentals
Don't have a bike? That's okay! Lafayette Habitat will be renting out bikes and helmets, just email our Bike Chair if you need one.
Step 4: Spread the Word
Spread the word of Bike Bash to your friends, family, and local communities! Bike Bash is one of our organization largest fundraisers. The more people we get involved the better!
Step 5: Enjoy the ride!
Bike Bash Support
If biking doesn't sound appealing to you, we welcome volunteers to provide support for the riders! Bike Bash support includes SAG van assistance (providing first aid relief, tools, and refreshments) and meal preparation.
