Pedalling and doing something good at the same time. That was the slogan of our summer campaign BIKE 'N' DONATE. Because we value our nature and our fellows and want to actively do something for the environment and climate protection. That's why over the summer we appealed to people to leave their cars and get on their bicycles.
For every kilometer tracked via the AIDLETICS App we donated 0,05 € to one of two social projects and of course the participants could win great prizes. Over the summer we could collect together a donation sum of 2326,34 € and can support the following social projects with it:
PLANT-MY-TREE
PLANT-MY-TREE has been carrying out reforestation projects for CO² compensation throughout Germany since 2009. The aim is to protect the environment and climate in Germany, so where our CO² emissions occur. PLANT-MY-TREE attaches importance to biodiversity and rejects monocultures in order to create a natural forest. Here the regional possibilities are considered. PLANT-MY- TREE guarantees a term of 99 years through sustainable tree planting on its own areas, whereby economic use is ruled out. In 2014 PLANT MY TREE was certified by TÜV.
We are now a climate protection partner and proud sponsor of 114 trees that could be planted due to your commitment.
WHEELS4LIFE
WHEELS4LIFE is a non-profit charity, that provides bicycles to people in great need of transportation throughout the developing world. We work with volunteers in the field, local organizations and non profits, schools, community leaders and health care clinics they help us identify those people in genuine need of a bike. These people are those that live in both primative and remote areas, with no access to, nor the means of affording public transportation. The closest school, doctor, or work place might be as far as 10 to 20 miles away.The gift of mobility can make all the difference to a person’s life and help them to break out of the vicious cycle of poverty.
#GiveABike-ChangeALife - and together we could change lives. Because with the money raised for WHEELS4LIFE 10 new bicycles could be bought.
Thanks for your participation in our summer campaign - together we could make the world a better place!
