About the project
A Diverse Series Of Events Aimed At Promoting Cycling, Community, Education & Good Times. We aim to make bicycling for transportation accessible and fun to women of all backgrounds and inclinations through fun events that appeal to a wide variety of perspectives.
The Steps
Year two will build off all the learning from year 1 - including
- a sponsorship kit that needs only to be modified before being sent out
- a comprehensive call of volunteers to build a responsive local mailing list
- fundraising beginning now for a practical view on event management
- RFP to bring in local partners to organize collectively
- solidify online promotion channels to increase awareness
- make editorial calendars for popular city publications
Why we‘re doing it
As an individual and as a designer; I am committed to making cycling for transportation an established and positive experience for everyone. The benefits of making bicycling a safe and fun form of everyday transportation has enormous benefits for human and environmental health. It's also a great way to build community in an increasingly digital era.
