Volunteer With Us
We rely on volunteers for everything that we do, and we are growing rapidly. You don’t need to know how to fix a bike, either. If you love cycling or supporting members of our community, please let us know. We can use your talents.
We always need assistance fixing bikes, supporting events, sharing stories, and seeking support.
Learn more about volunteering and our H.U.B. Club volunteer appreciation program.
Bikes Needed!
We always need used, adult bikes and bike parts. This is the core of what we do, and we couldn’t do it without your support. Please consider donating an old bike. You’ll clean out your garage or basement and make a profound impact on someone in our community at the same time. Give that old bike a new life and a new purpose!
