ORGANIZATION: BICYCLE ANGELS INC

Bicycle Angels is a non-profit charity that loans road bicycles to people that want to participate and fund raise via an eligible charity cycling or triathlon event, but don’t have a suitable bike to use. Our bicycles are loaned to motivated and committed individuals who are passionate about charity fundraising but just don't have the right bike. By loaning a bike, we help remove a major barrier to charity fundraising, plus engage new people into cycling. About half of our loan recipients later go on to buy their own road bike.

Since our inception in late 2009, we have loaned bicycles to over 2000 participants who have collectively raised over $5 million for over 35 important causes. These numbers are growing all the time. Charities that have benefited to date include the AIDS LifeCycle (the largest we support) Leukemia Lymphoma Society (via Team in Training), Multiple Sclerosis Society, National Diabetes Society, Arthritis Foundation, Climate Ride, Fuller Housing Foundation, Best Buddies, and many more.

We currently have a fleet of over 325 road bikes for loan in 9 cities, in 6 states, and growing.

Our San Francisco Area needs assistance in need of volunteers on an ongoing basis to:
- Assist in managing our loaner fleet and checking in and out bikes;
- Expand our outreach with the cycling community; and,
- Attracting potential donors.

Ideally, volunteers will be an experienced cyclist who has completed at least one endurance fundraising event and is familiar with the local cycling community. Special preference for members of the LGBTQ members of the community. If this sounds like a position you'd be interested in, please contact me ASAP. Thanks for paying attention!

Empowering Cyclists to Help Charities

Description

Bicycle Angels is a non-profit charity that loans road bicycles for free to people that want to participate and fund raise for an eligible charity cycling or triathlon event, but don’t have a suitable bike to use, and can’t afford one. Our bicycles are loaned to motivated and committed individuals who are passionate about charity fundraising but are not financially capable of owning a bike suitable for endurance cycling.

We help remove a major barrier to charity fundraising, plus engage new people into cycling. About half of our loan recipients later go on to buy their own bike.

Since our inception in late 2009, we have loaned bicycles to over 1200 participants who have collectively raised over $3.5 Million for important causes. Charities that have benefited to date include the Leukemia Lymphoma Society (via Team in Training), Multiple Sclerosis Society, National Diabetes Society, AIDS Lifecycle, Arthritis Foundation, Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation, and Barb’s Breast Cancer Fund.

We currently operate 7 offices in four states, and continue to grown in our reach.
