How to Volunteer?
There are many ways to volunteer at the Davis Bike Collective. Any shop worker on duty can help you get started with what you do best and can lead you to the tasks that are needed. There are intermitent orientations scheduled throughout the year that will get you familiar with the shop. Contact Sarah for details.
Who to contact?

She can get anyone started at the collective and introduce you to the daily needs at the collective.
What needs to get done?
You don't need to know how to fix bikes to help out. Some of the daily tasks include simple things like sweeping up and cleaning. Tool organization and more project oriented tasks can be done after some time spent at the shop getting to know the process and the other enthusiastic volunteers.
Regular Tasks
- Clean-up (sweep, put tools aways, scrub the bathroom, etc)
- Meet-and-greet (show people how to sign in and introduce them to a lead volunteer)
- Bike education with new customers (check in with Sarah for the next volunteer orientation.
- Flyers and event calender updating
- Merchandise sales
Special projects
- Graphic design
- Translation of portions of the website into Spanish and other appropriate languages
- Grant writing and fund raising
- Painting the MMU (mobile ministry unit)
- Website administration
- Bathroom overhaul
- Special events coordination
Since the shop is solely run by volunteers any help is extremely appreciated and welcomed. Check out the event calender to see what works with your schedule.
