Check out this great article about the Kona AfricaBike program in the Roanoke Times in Virginia that documents Christine George’s huge fundraiser that took place last year. Christine and friends at Virginia Tech raised $10,600 for the program and helped build more than 200 bikes in Mozambique last fall.

Yes, here it is, a new way to donate to the Kona BikeTown Africa program.     

For 2009, we have added a fresh, easy way to donate to the program for everyone who’s looking to make a tax-deductible contribution. Thanks to the newly formed non-profit Kona Basic Needs, donations can be made straight to the program by visiting the site and becoming involved. It’s easy and takes as little time as clicking send!

Just check: http://www.konaworld.com/basicneeds/.

We’re looking forward to a super-fine ‘09 and invite you to join us.

Cheers!
