Hello Everyone,

We wanted to send a quick update on our Bikes for Girls Program in Vietnam. You are getting this report because you have supported our girls with a donation either recently or in the past. Thank you so much! So far this year, together we have given 480 girls new bicycles to travel to school. That is a lot of girls! We are so proud to use your donations like this to support their safety and travel back and forth from home to their schools. Your bicycles continue to bring the girls great joy and pride. We plan to continue to distribute the bikes, helmets, and bike pumps that you have contributed to, to more girls through the rest of this year, and on into years to come.

In some of the photos posted with this report, you can see that we continue to repair the girl's bikes through our bike repair program. Check out the great photos that one of our bike mechnics took at a bike repair day in August.

Over the summer, I was lucky to be able travel over to Vietnam for the first time since the pandemic started and work with our staff in person instead of on zoom. All our programs are running so well, and I want to say thank you to our Vietnamese staff for working with our partners the local red cross, each month to identify our bike recipients, order the bikes and helmets, and go to every bike giving that we do throughout the year. All of them are amazing, and you can be assured that your donation is making a difference.

Again, thank you for supporting 480 girls so far this year.

We hope that you all have a wonderful fall!
