Oneupweb Ups Safety for Traverse City Children

Oneupweb employees save their would-be gas money to donate children’s bicycle helmets to the TART Trail during Smart Commute Week.

(TRAVERSE CITY, MI)—Walking, biking and kayaking means no weekly gas expenses. So, Oneupweb is taking Smart Commute Week a step further—pooling the money they save on gas and doing their part to keep Traverse City’s tiniest commuters safe on their bikes.

“Smart Commute Week helps spread an eco-friendly message in Traverse City and promotes physical activity,” says Oneupweb Founder and CEO Lisa Wehr. “It’s definitely an event we enjoy participating in, and this year we’re eager to do more. We want to aid in safety awareness, which led us to the idea of donating children’s bike helmets to the TART Trail.”

The TART Trail organizes and hosts numerous safety events, during which they urge helmet use. With the donation from Oneupweb, the TART Trail will be able to handout helmets to children in need. In addition to the donations from the Oneupweb staff, Wehr will personally match the total amount raised by the company—providing more safety for more children.

This Friday, June 11, Oneupweb will present its donation to the TART Trail during the Commuter Cup Challenge Awards. This event will be held at The River TC at the Clinch Park Zoo on 201 E. Grandview Parkway and will begin at 8:00 a.m.
