Replace stolen bike for Pierreisna
Donation protected
Funding achieved! I have closed down donations! Bike, helmet, water bottle, pump, lock, clothing all being acquired. I will update with specifics. Everyone is welcome to go to Publix on Lake Mary Blvd. on Sunday at 2:30pm.
I'm creating this for Debbie Swan who originally posted on FB about her need with the following text:
This is Pierreisna (and Tucker). She has worked as a bagger at the Lake Mary Blvd Publix for almost 11 years. Over the past 7 years that we've been living here, I have seen Pierreisna many times riding her bike back and forth to work. Today she walked by us as we were checking out, she smiled like always and I said, you wanna go outside. She smiled and was like, yeah. As we're walking out I said, are you still riding your bike? And she goes, i bought my bike from Walmart and someone stole my bike. I parked it at Target and someone stole it. I was like, oh man I'm so sorry, when did this happen? She said, last Friday, I've been having to walk back and forth now.
So, you all know we can't have this. This young lady needs a bike. I am asking if anyone has a bike they are not using, if you would please consider donating it to Pierreisna. I told I would be asking my Facebook friends if anyone had a bike and she gave me her contact info. Thank you all taking the time to read all this and caring."
I'm just someone trying to help and will get things started with a donation. Lots of fees are taken out so I've set the goal amount high enough to replace the bike, pay the fees and get her a high quality bike lock. All funds will be handed over to Debbie if she likes or I'm happy to help facilitate the process. I have a Town and Country minivan that can easily transport a bike and if it comes requiring assembly I can get it to Dave's Cycle World in Altamonte Springs or do it myself.
This is an immediate need.
