How Priority Delivers Works

We teamed up again with Priority Bicycles for a special activation and fundraiser where volunteers on six bikes—custom-painted by YANAM artists—delivered limited edition postcards with the message “You Are Not Alone” to unsuspecting New Yorkers through a series of group rides in May.

See the bikes here by artists include Dirty Bandits (YANAM co-founder), Jason Naylor, Adam Fujita, Chris Piascik, Marco Santini and Cris Pagnoncelli.

At the end of the month, the six bikes (value $1500 each!) were raffled off with all proceeds going to YANAM. Tickets started at just $10. See more  here

The Goal

The goal is to spark hope, connection, and conversations about mental health. This activation recreates the emotions of encountering the murals in person–surprise, feeling seen and connected, that the encounter was “meant to be,” and concern about who else might need to hear this message–but on an intimate scale with one-on-one interaction.

The Take Away

Every recipient receives 2 postcards printed by our friends at MOO—one to keep and one to pass the message along. The postcards include contact info for NAMI-NYC who offers FREE services to help families and individuals affected by mental illness.
