Help us make bicycling better in Fairfax

As you make your end of year charitable donations, I hope you will consider donating to FABB. FABB is a volunteer organization that advocates for bicyclist safety, rights, and facilities. We need funds to print materials like our award-winning bicycle accommodations guide, host our website with up-to-date information on bicycling in Fairfax, and participate in key meetings. Can you help us with a year-end tax deductible donation today?

Among our main goals for 2012:

Begin implementing the Tysons Bicycle Master Plan

Help complete the Countywide Bicycle Master Plan

Encourage more kids to bike to school (Safe Routes to School)

Form a bicycle advisory committee for the Northern Virginia VDOT District office

We had a very productive 2011. Some of what we accomplished in Fairfax this year:

Planning for the future with the Tysons and Countywide Bicycle Master Plans

Launch of International Bike and Walk to School Day in twenty six local schools

Bike commuting and safety education including our bike light giveaway program

Community outreach including bike rodeos and Bike to Work Day

Speaking to many boards, local commissions, and elected officials

Working with transportation staff on the safe design of our roads

Our work was recognized this year with a national award for innovative advocacy from the Alliance for Biking & Walking. We have achieved all of this on a tiny budget. With our dedicated team of passionate volunteers, every dollar that FABB receives goes a very long way. We could be even more effective if we had a few more dollars to help us do this critical on-going work. Please donate to FABB either online or send a check for WABA/FABB” to FABB, P.O. Box 3752, Reston, VA 20195.

Thanks.
