Statewide organization, local impact.
This year, the League of Michigan Bicyclists was able to bring back our Micro Grant program after two years of being unable to fund it due to the pandemic. We get to hear from local bike groups across the state that are encouraging bicycling in their communities. It’s in our mission to make Michigan Bicycling Better, and while we work hard to do that at the state level, we love to work with nonprofits, cycling clubs, libraries, bike shops, and anyone who is making a difference at a local level.
After receiving more applications than we could give grants to, we had to make some difficult decisions and we awarded 12 organizations with a grant of $200 to $2,000 to further their missions and assist with projects. These organizations are offering programs across Michigan, and many of them are focused on groups that don’t always have access to cycling education like kids, women, and the LGBTQ community.
Below you can click on the names of the organizations doing incredible work across the state to read what they’re working on. We encourage you to read their pages and donate to their pages to support the work they're doing to make Michigan bicycling better!
