Here are some great reasons to volunteer with us:
The Cause
As a volunteer you’ll help grow capacity for more cycling in our region. You’ll help get more people out of cars and onto bikes.
Learn new useful skills
We train volunteers and will involve you in any aspects of the co-op that interest you. You’ll learn valuable skills you can pass along to your friends, family, neighbors, and coworkers. We usually start volunteers with a basic level of bicycle maintenance training.
Volunteering with us exercises skills including team cooperation, customer service, and maintaining clean, presentable, and safe spaces.
Vélocity’s Board of Directors and Volunteer Coordinator are always happy to write reference letters.
Age Requirements
Individuals 18 year or older can volunteer with Velocity on their own. Individuals between the ages of 16 and 17 need their parent or guardian present during the first day of volunteering. Individuals under 16 years of age will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
