  • 4 people are interested
Bike Expo

The incredibly popular Bike Expo New York promotes sustainable transportation and recreation to an estimated 90,000 attendees with 100+ vendors, live-performances, free bicycle classes and more. Passionate environmentalists volunteers needed at the annual Bike Expo New York taking place May 5th and May 6th.

For the fourth year in a row, GrowNYC and our volunteers are working to make the event itself sustainable by recycling as much waste as possible, and this year we are adding an athletic wear and sneaker collection at the GrowNYC tent to divert even more waste from landfills! No experience necessary! Volunteers will receive comprehensive training, t-shirts, and snacks, as well as plenty of thanks by the public for doing something so good. There are multiple shifts throughout the day. Please indicate which shift you prefer to volunteer for.
