ORGANIZATION: Time's Up

  • 9 people are interested

Time's UP! environmental organization runs a bicycle repair co-op in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. We are currently looking for volunteers/interns to help run the bicycle repair workshop space every Wednesday and Sunday from 5PM-9PM. We need someone responsible to open/close the space and watch over the bike repair workshops. It would be helpful if you had some experience with tools, but not required to fulfill this position. This is a first floor location which the public has walk-in access to.

In addition to fixing and maintaining the bicycles in the community, Time's UP! also runs a recycle-a-bike program out of the same location + limited sales of used bicycles. Although people rarely buy stuff, mostly bike parts, there is very little money exchange. You would be trained on how to perform the space manager duties. You would be helping promote non-polluting sustainable transportation and being part of the solution to climate change.

Requirements: organizational skills / people skills

Minimum commitment: 3 months / Wednesday AND Sunday evening every week

Mission Statement

TIME'S UP! educates people about the environmental impacts of everyday purchases. We focus on transportation issues in New York City and have been instrumental in involving cyclists and skaters in large, mobile actions.

Description

TIME'S UP! is a grassroots environmental group that has been working on environmental issues for 27 years. Educational outreach and direct action are the two most important aspects of TIME'S UP! We hold more than 100 free outdoor and indoor events each year. Our campaigns range from saving community gardens to promoting non-polluting transportation. In 2012, Time's Up! partnered with the Museum of Reclaimed Urban Space (Morus) in lower east side of Manhattan, which archives the history of the community and gardens, advocating community engagement and sustainable urban design.
