You can help make New Hampshire a better place to bike, walk, and run
Your vision for our beautiful state may include making it an even better place for biking or walking to work or for recreation, going for a scenic jog, or walking down Main Street to do a little shopping before ducking into your favorite hangout for a cup of coffee. You might feel strongly about safer conditions for people who don’t drive. Maybe you’re motivated by wanting to help people be more active and healthy. Bike-Walk Alliance of NH shares your vision and is working on policy and funding changes to make it possible. Look below for ways you can bring this vision closer to reality.
Ways to help:
- Show some love while you shop!
We know you try to do your shopping locally, but sometimes you may need to order online. If you shop at Amazon, you can set Bike-Walk Alliance of New Hampshire as your designated charity in the Amazon Smile program and give a little bit with every purchase. Just log in to smile.amazon.com and set your charity to “Bike-Walk Alliance of New Hampshire”. More info here.
- Go social!
Follow Bike-Walk Alliance of New Hampshire on Facebook, and share our posts on your accounts to spread awareness of complete streets and other initiatives. Post action photos of you and your friends biking, walking, and running, and mention @bwa.nh and #CompleteStreetsNH.
- Show your shop some love!
You buy your gear from local bike and running shops, right? Do they belong to BWANH? If so, tell them how much you appreciate their support. If not, tell them why the work of Bike-Walk Alliance of New Hampshire is important to you and why you think they should become a supporter.
- Donate!
Support from the public is the driving force behind BWANH’s ability to keep an eye on developments around the state, as well as to advocate for the rights of pedestrians and bicyclists to travel safely. Please go to our SUPPORT US page and make a donation today.
- Go clubbing!
Do you belong to a club with people like you who would like to see better conditions for biking and walking or running? Drop us an email and we’ll send you some literature to give to your buddies.
- Adopt a paving project!
You can make a difference in your own neighborhood. This guide will show you how.
- Teach!
Become a youth biking-and-walking safety instructor, especially if you’re near Nashua or Lebanon. Send an email to info@bwanh.org & let us know you’re interested. We’ll teach you how.
Now you know how, it’s just a matter of when. How about now?
