 Dear Daniel, Today, people really want to live in neighborhoods where it's easy and safe to bike and walk. But strong communities with safe biking and walking options don't build themselves. They're the direct result of grassroots advocates' concerted efforts to improve streets for people. This fall, we held a Leadership Retreat to bring together 120 grassroots advocates who are working to make biking and walking better. Watch the video from the Retreat here.  Grassroots advocates find the places that need sidewalks, bike lanes, and crosswalks. They work with members of the community to make sure that the transportation network works for everyone. They hold events -- walks, rides, community planning sessions -- to bring people together. They track transportation laws to make sure that walkers and bikers have a voice in the legislative process. And the Alliance makes sure that these grassroots advocates have the resources they need to do their jobs well. Watch our new video to see why these amazing grassroots advocates are so important: https://www.bikewalkalliance.org/watch Then, please make a donation to support the Alliance's important work to bolster the biking and walking advocacy movement. Together, we're building a truly People Powered Movement to advance walking and biking in North America. Thank you for your support.
Thank you, Jeffrey Miller    If you would like to unsubscribe click here. |
