Get Involved!
Volunteering to be a supportive role model for a young person can be life-changing. Our volunteers teach bike skills, provide moral support and help kids meet challenges. They also tune bikes, secure donations, write grants, build community support, and make it all happen behind the scenes.
If you’d like to share your time and expertise with youth, please email our volunteer coordinator, Roxanne Harrison at bikesantacruzca@gmail.com
