Join the cast of This Is Hell for their next Meet & Greet Fundraiser Saturday, February 6th, at Cary's Lounge, 2251 West Devon and goes from 4 PM to 8 PM. All of the nights proceeds from the bar will go to the Working Bikes Cooperative.

Working Bikes is primarily volunteer-driven. Currently it receives no government or foundation money. All its operations are funded through the sale of bicycles at its storefront. Working Bikes uses that money to provide bicycles to charity organizations within Chicagoland and to ship bicycles to the Gulf Coast, Ghana, Tanzania, Angola, Cuba, Guatemala, and Peru.

In the countries to which Working Bikes ships, a bicycle can often mean the difference between work and unemployment. The bicycle is the primary means of vehicular transportation for the majority of the population and is used both for personal transportation and for carrying cargo.

Due to wage differences, a bicycle worth $20 in Chicago can be worth the equivalent of $1,000 in Africa.

Each year Working Bikes gives away over 5,000 bicycles locally and internationally. It distributes about 500 bicycles and wheelchairs in the Chicago area alone: to City programs, refugees and day camps.

This evening is being made possible by the generosity of Cary's Lounge.

Cordially in your face-
but still cordially,

Spencer "Thunderball" Thayer!
