BikeDenver.org » July’s Bicycle Friendly Business of the Month

Clif Bar and BikeDenver are pleased to announce their selection of MIGHTYkarma as July’s Bicycle Friendly Business of the Month. Principle Jeff Martin says: “At MIGHTYkarma, our job is to create powerful advertising and design for clients. Our bigger mission is to inspire our clients to develop a “giving back” mentality within their business model. Commuting to work is part of our “good deeds through great work” philosophy. And we encourage employees to find alternate means of transportation with $200 towards that goal when they start.”

You’ll find a menagerie of bikes at MIGHTYkarma (some might even be available for use by clients!), and at least one former employee commuted most days by bike with an 80-lb canine friend hitching a ride in a bike trailer. You may see Martin on any number of bikes around town or out on the trails, and you can catch his cyclecross debut this coming fall… (Pictured Right: Martin at the Finish Line of The Denver Century Ride)

At BikeDenver, we’re big fans of MIGHTYkarma. We’ve been their pro-bono client since mid-2009, and since then, they’ve helped us refresh our logo and other materials, design collateral to support our “Ride On” campaign, and launch our first radio PSAs. Hear them here.

BikeDenver’s Bicycle Friendly Business (BFB) of the Month Awards help highlight organizations that are making standout contributions and offering great success stories from among BikeDenver’s Bicycle Friendly Business (BFB) Program members.
