The Caroline Shauger Memorial Fund
Allison Shauger, the former chair of Bike Durham and daughter of Caroline Shauger, stands at a crossroads of memory and action. In launching the Caroline Shauger Memorial Fund, she embodies a profound truth: that love can inspire tangible change in the world. This fund is more than a financial initiative; it is a bridge connecting the past to the future, honoring a legacy while fostering new possibilities.
Every dollar you contribute carries the weight of intention and hope. It costs $5,000 to implement our bike riding and walking education curriculum in one Durham public school. This investment doesn’t merely teach children how to ride bikes; it cultivates their confidence, encouraging them to explore their surroundings and discover their own potential.
In a society that often forgets the importance of community, your support serves as a reminder of our interconnectedness. By contributing to this fund, you’re not just making a donation; you’re participating in a collective effort to empower the next generation and keep Caroline’s spirit alive. Thank you for joining us in this meaningful endeavor, where memory and action converge to create lasting change.
