Photo: Courtesy Boise Bicycle ProjectThe Boise Bicycle Project (BBP) is once again looking for kids’ bikes to spruce up for children in need.This year, BBP hopes to receive over 550 bikes to give to children for its Holiday Kids B ike Giveaway, happening December 19. The organization is encouraging the public to donate 16”, 20”, 24”, and BMX-sized bikes during its bike drive this Saturday, November 7, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the alley behind its storefront located at 1027 Lusk St., Boise.BBP, a nonprofit, asks nonprofit partners, social workers, teachers, and state agencies for referrals for kids who could use a bike. Here’s the cool part about this event: each child draws a picture of their “dream bike” and BBP’s volunteers get to work on a donated bike to bring their vision to life.“Our Holiday Kids Bike Drive is truly critical to ensuring a successful bicycle giveaway event on December 19th. It’s also a really special day where so many community members come together to give in a way that’s meaningful to them to support 550+ kids rolling away on their dream bikes,” said Devin McComas, Boise Bicycle Project’s executive director, in a press release. In addition to bikes, families who attend the December event will be able to take home warm clothes, enjoy cookies and cocoa, and interact with other Boise-area service organizations.On Saturday, bikes can also be dropped at the following locations from 9 a.m.-12 p.m. for delivery to BBP:The Clara, Eagle: 225 S.
