Recycle Bicycle Volunteer

The Recycle Bicycle Program was created in 2007 with the simple idea of fixing donated bicycles and providing them to locals in need. Hundreds of bikes have been donated, repaired and given to those in need. 
Squamish Helping Hands Society has been holding this project and rehoming used and refurbished bikes for the last 3 years. 
We are looking for some extra volunteers to help with the program this summer. 

Are you handy? Good with tools and repairing lightly used bicycles?
We are looking for a few people who would be interested in volunteering a few hours a week to come in help us with donated bikes so we can get them back to a running state for someone else to use. 

Are you organized and good with people?
We are looking for a volunteer or two to help coordinate recording bikes coming in, arranging them to be fixed (if necessary) then matching them up with a suitable recipient.
 
Benefits of this program include, giving people a mode of transportation, reducing waste in the landfill, increasing ability for exercise and decreasing car traffic. 

We are also hoping to have a Recycle Bicycle day and drive (date to be announced). We will also be looking for volunteers to help on the day of the event with collecting, washing, fixing and giving out bicycles.
