We are excited to share a special bike build event recently held in partnership with Domino’s and Peace Neighborhood Center. This event brought together community members and volunteers to build bikes that will be shared with children in the Ann Arbor community who could use a new bike!
About the Event
Held on August 15th, at German Park in Ann Arbor; approximately fifty-five volunteers from the Domino’s IT team came together to assemble 12 bikes for the Peace Neighborhood Center to distribute to local youth in Washtenaw County.
“We are thrilled to partner with Domino’s for this special event,” said Mark Smith, Founder of Bikes for Goodness Sake. “Their commitment to giving back to their community and supporting Peace Neighborhood Center’s mission aligns perfectly with our mission to share the goodness of giving bicycles to children who might not otherwise have the opportunity to own one.”
Making a Difference
This bike build event will make a lasting impact on the lives of these children. Each child will receive a bike, along with a custom-fit bike-shop-quality helmet, that will provide the opportunity to experience the joy, freedom, and health benefits of biking.
“We are delighted to partner with Bikes for Goodness Sake to provide brand new bikes for Peace kids. We’re looking forward to working together on this meaningful initiative to further amplify Peace Neighborhood Center and all the ways they help young people in our community,” said Jenny Fouracre-Petko, Domino’s senior director of communications. “We believe in the power of community partnerships and are excited to contribute and bring joy to so many youth in our community.”
