Support CalBike on #GivingTuesday
While you’re giving thanks this holiday, consider hosting a Facebook fundraiser to support CalBike on #GivingTuesday. On November 27th, there will be zero processing fees on all contributions made through Facebook, plus up to $7 million will be matched on all gifts that day. That means if your aunt contributes $100, we’ll actually get $200!
Fundraising for CalBike on #GivingTuesday is super easy on Facebook.
Why host a Facebook fundraiser today instead of tomorrow or next month?
On November 27, 2018, nonprofits using Facebook to fundraise pay no fee—100% of gifts will go directly to CalBike, and Facebook will match all contributions up to $7 million. Take advantage of this great opportunity by:

We hope #GivingTuesday is a chance for you to tell your friends how important biking is to you (and how much you save on gas by pedaling to the grocery store!)
