May is -Think Outside the Car !
CoolMom is gathering pledges for traveling by carbon-less means. Support CoolMom members by pledging per mile as members travel by two feet, two wheels, and/or mass transit throughout the month of May.
Think Outside the Car Month!
Do you find yourself getting in your car too often? Does traveling by bike or mass transit intimidate you?
Pick the month of May to challenge your transportation status quo and try some carbon-less means of travel.
Get out of your car and explore your neighborhood by walking and biking. Plan ahead and take mass transit to that downtown meeting, or that trip to Pacific Science Center with your kids. Follow these tips to help you plan ahead and make travel easier.
While you are trying these new or usual means of travel on for size, help raise awareness and needed funds for CoolMom.
How to get involved?
- Plan the number of days you will travel by walking, biking or taking mass transit.
- Gather pledges from friends, family and neighbors; and consider getting a matching pledge from your place of work.
- Make the months travel a competition with friends or family and see who can travel the most miles.
- Travel miles can be logged while you are traveling to work, school, play and/or running those errands.
- Complete a pledge form by tallying your miles and amounts pledged
- Gather your pledges and write a check made out to CoolMom and send the completed form and check to CoolMom, PO Box 46228, Seattle, WA 98146
- Can't muster up the time to do it yourself? Then make a pledge towards our Director's efforts. Details here.
