THE PEOPLE WHO VOLUNTEER TO ESCORT US HOME NEED NEW T-SHIRTS


Brooklyn Bike Patrol, the volunteers who have been escorting people home safely from subway stations and other places at night since 2011, needs help in purchasing new t-shirts for its members.

Riders need thirty long-sleeve t-shirts at a cost of $270 and thirty short-sleeve t-shirts at a cost of $180.

The practice of putting the name of the t-shirt donor--an individual or a business--on the shirt's left sleeve will continue.

Anyone who can donate money to buy the t-shirts is asked to contact BBP by e-mail at email @ Brooklynbikepatrol@gmail.com.

Jay Ruiz founded Brooklyn Bike Patrol in September 2011 after hearing about the sexual assaults being committed against women in Brooklyn. He felt a calling to fight back against the crime wave.  BBP has grown from a one-person operation to dozens of members who feel the same way that Jay does.
