Why Bicycles?
The idea...
A couple from CommUNITY Church came up with this idea knowing the joy bicycles can bring to children, having a child of their own. From that initial idea, Wheels for Hope was launched with the goal of bringing joy to 1,000 children in Texas! We have decided to continue this idea each year to a location that has been devastated by a natural event.
This is personal…
When one of our church members, Bob Morris, came to me about this idea, he started with “you may think I am crazy, but…” Instead of thinking him crazy, I added to the initial goal and set out to rally the troops and make his vision a reality!
Why is this is personal…
In 1992 my family was stationed on the island of Guam when Super Typhoon Omar hit. Winds with gusts over 200 mph left over 2,000 homes devastated and caused about 500 million in damage. We were personally left without power and water for months. With two small children in the home, Christmas presents were not a priority, rebuilding the islands infrastructure was.
Isolated and powerless is how we all felt over the next few months, Wheels for Hope is one way we can show the children, they are not alone.
