Many of us ride in the winter and can afford to dress for it. Some in our city aren't so lucky, including many youth without a home. To help them, the #YEGBike community has launched a charity drive collecting winter clothing for YESS: Youth Empowerment & Support Services (formerly known as the Youth Emergency Shelter Society). Donations of jackets, toques, gloves, jeans, socks, and underwear can be dropped off until December 5 at:
- Revolution Cycle (15103 Stony Plain Road)
- Redbike (10918 88 Ave)
- Earth's General Store, both locations (9605 82 Ave, 10150 104 St)
- Mud, Sweat, & Gears (133 Main Blvd, Sherwood Park)
Let's show Edmonton that cyclists have heart!
On December 6, a group bike ride will deliver the donations. Please consider giving what you can to help keep marginalized youth warm this winter.
