A local bicycle nonprofit seeks help fundraising and applying for grants to support our charitable work. Much of the work can be done virtually, but volunteers must be able to meet at Velocity in person on a monthly basis to maintain familiarity with the organization's activities.

Mission Statement

Our mission is to grow and empower an inclusive biking community through education and affordability.

We reduce waste by using recycled materials and directing unusable bicycle components to a metal recycling facility.

Description

VĂ©locity Bicycle Cooperative is a local nonprofit that refurbishes used bicycles, selling hundreds of bikes each year for affordable prices while donating over 100 bikes a year to individuals in challenging financial circumstances. No experience is required to volunteer with us. Come on down, make new friends, mess with bikes!
