Biking for a Cause: Celebrating Our Partnership with the FOP and Looking Ahead to May

At Savannah Bike Tours, we believe that the best way to honor our city’s history is by supporting the people who protect its future. Every month, we select a local organization to receive a portion of our tour proceeds, allowing our guests to contribute to the Savannah community simply by hopping on a bike.

Today, we are thrilled to share the results of our April partnership and introduce our featured organization for May!

April Wrap-Up: Supporting Our Local Heroes

Throughout the month of April, a portion of every ticket sold was dedicated to the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) Mobley-Giles-Willis Lodge #7.

This local lodge does incredible work supporting our law enforcement officers and their families, fostering community relations, and ensuring that those who wear the badge have a strong support system right here in Savannah.

The Results Are In! Thanks to everyone who joined us for a ride last month, we are proud to announce a total donation of:

$1,391

These funds go directly toward the Lodge’s mission of community service and member support. We want to extend a massive "Thank You" to our April guests—you didn't just see the sights; you made a tangible difference for Savannah's finest.

Looking Ahead: May is for Preservation

As we roll into May, we are shifting our focus to the very streets and structures that make our tours possible. We are excited to announce that our May donation partner is the Historic Savannah Foundation (HSF).

The HSF has been the guardian of Savannah’s architectural soul since 1955. From saving the Davenport House to revitalizing entire neighborhoods, their work ensures that the "Museum Without Walls" we enjoy today remains intact for generations to come.

How You Can Help This Month:

• Book a Tour: A portion of your booking fee throughout May goes directly to the HSF.

• Spread the Word: Tell your friends and family that their Mother’s Day, Memorial Day. or graduation weekend bike tour helps preserve Savannah’s historic skyline.

• Learn the History: Our guides often highlight specific HSF-saved sites during our rides!

Pedaling with Purpose

Whether we’re supporting the officers of Lodge #7 or the preservationists at HSF, our goal remains the same: to give back to the city we love.

Pedals with a Purpose: Marching Forward with Citizen Advocacy

At Savannah Bike Tours, we believe the best way to see our city is on two wheels—but the best way to honor our city is by supporting the people who make it a community.

This March, we are thrilled to announce that thanks to our riders, we’ve donated $1,220 to our monthly community partner: Chatham-Savannah Citizen Advocacy.

Why This Matters

For over 40 years, Chatham-Savannah Citizen Advocacy has been doing the quiet, essential work of relationship-building. They recruit and support local citizens to stand beside people with disabilities who may be lonely or excluded.

It isn’t just about "volunteering"; it’s about advocacy and friendship. Whether it’s helping someone navigate the healthcare system or simply sharing a cup of coffee at a local cafe, these partnerships ensure that every member of our community has a voice and a friend.

By the Numbers: March Impact

Every time you booked a tour this past month, a portion of your ticket went directly into this fund. Here’s the breakdown:

• Total Donated: $1,220

• Month: March 2026

• Goal: To support the recruitment and matching of new citizen advocates in the Savannah area.

"A community is only as strong as its most vulnerable members. We are incredibly proud to support an organization that builds bridges where they are needed most." — The Savannah Bike Tours Team

Pedaling with Purpose: How Your 2025 Tours Impacted Savannah

At Savannah Bike Tours, we believe the best way to see our beautiful city is on two wheels. But beyond the moss-draped oaks and cobblestone streets, our true passion lies in the community that makes Savannah so special.

That’s why we are thrilled to announce that thanks to our riders, 2025 was a landmark year for our giving program. ---

Making a Difference, One Mile at a Time

We don't just ride through these neighborhoods; we invest in them. Every time you book a tour with us, a portion of that experience goes right back into local pockets that need it most.

In 2025, Savannah Bike Tours donated a total of $8,104 to a diverse group of non-profits working tirelessly across the Hostess City.

Our 2025 Beneficiaries

We carefully select organizations that reflect the spirit, history, and future of Savannah and the surrounding Lowcountry. This year’s donations supported:

• Youth & Empowerment: Girls on the Run of South Georgia, Frank Callen Boys and Girls Club, and Greenbriar Children’s Center.

• Health & Advocacy: CURE Childhood Cancer, Tharros Place, and Chatham County Citizen Advocacy.

• Community Support: Savannah Widows Society, Catholic Charities, and First City Pride Center.

• Safety & Heritage: Lodge 7 Fraternal Order of Police and the Historic Savannah Foundation.

• Environment & Animals: Tybee Island Marine Science Center and Grr Pet Rescue.

Why We Give

Savannah isn't just a backdrop for our tours—it's our home. Whether it's preserving the architecture that makes our routes so scenic via the Historic Savannah Foundation or protecting our coastal ecosystem with the Tybee Island Marine Science Center, we want to ensure Savannah remains vibrant for generations of cyclists to come.

"Giving back is the heart of our business. Seeing the direct impact these organizations have on our neighbors makes every pedal stroke worth it."

Thank You for Riding with Us

This $8,104 donation belongs to you—our guests. By choosing a local bike tour, you’ve helped provide shelter for children, support for cancer research, and protection for our local history.

As we roll through 2026, we’re looking forward to even bigger goals and more miles of impact. We can’t wait to see you on the trails!
