Paper Bikes

Paper Bike Sales are a longstanding tradition that many corporate partners have participated in as part of their efforts to raise funds for the Sun Life Ride to Defeat Diabetes for JDRF. Selling Paper Bikes is another way for companies to build excitement and spread awareness about the Ride. The program is a great way to engage your customers and colleagues in support of JDRF and is easy to implement.

Step 1: Ask a colleague or customer if they would like to purchase a Paper Bike to help support JDRF in the search for a cure for type 1 diabetes (T1D).

Step 4: Display the signed Paper Bike to help raise awareness for JDRF.
