My Project

Foerster bike rack is something our school really need. Our scholars live in a low income area and transportation is a big issue among our students. A lot of the parents don't have a car so the student will ride their bikes to school.

Imagine getting out of school and your bike is gone because your school cant afford to get bike racks to secure student bikes while in class.

Getting a bike rack for our campus will prevent this from happening to a student.

Please join me on this project for our students here at Foerster so that they will have a safe place for their bikes.,
