LANSING, MI — Nearly 30 children in the Lansing area will get to experience the excitement of having a brand new bike over the holidays thanks to the generosity of some McLaren Greater Lansing employees.
The hospital’s Simple Gift Holiday Tree program recently donated the bikes to kids in need across mid-Michigan.
“For years the Environmental Services department adopted a family and one of the things we always did was make sure all the kids in the family would get a bike,” said Tony Yeo, McLaren Greater Lansing Manager of Environmental Services. “The staff came together and decided to expand that idea and give bikes to more kids.”
This year, the hospital’s Environmental Services team lead an effort along with donations from other departments to purchase 27 bikes and a large number of helmets to donate to Toys for Tots.
