A fledgling group may be intimidated by the numbers on our budget. It
should be made clear that Recycle-A-Bicycle has been extremely fortunate
in seeking funding. This is due in part to the fact that RAB sprang from
Transportation Alternatives, an established non-profit organization with
a very experienced staff. We also had the benefit of making some lucky
contacts in the public school system and the city government. We
understand that most groups will start on a much smaller scale That's
why we provide the "Low Budget Tool Order List."
