ASHEVILLE – Friends of Dupont Forest is one of two organizations in the country to receive the 2021 Stand Up Initiative award from Darby Communications and Status Forward, which will provide pro bono PR and marketing services to the nonprofit.
During 2021, the agencies will partner with Friends of Dupont Forest and Waterside Workshops in Berkeley, California. Darby Communications and Status Forward will donate 100 hours of PR and marketing services to each nonprofit.
Beginning immediately, they will team up with the Friends on their Share the Trails campaign.
BERKELEY, Calif. (KGO) It may look like a normal bike shop from the outside but on the inside this nonprofit is doing great things for the community and environment. Waterside Workshops in Berkeley is refurbishing bicycles that would otherwise end in the landfill and giving them to children and locals in need. We exclusively deal with used bicycles and they are brought to us as donations, said Catherine Callaway, Program Manager at Street Level Cycles. We try to make sure that people who really need it have access to a bicycle.
For the past five years, Waterside Workshops has been receiving bike donations from community members. Recently, the nonprofit was able to provide 85 refurbished bicycles to local organizations.
