Pedaling Philanthropy
We are grateful for the incredible support of over 7,400 individuals who volunteered their time over the last six years to help us clean and repair 12,385 bikes to give away to kids in our community. Now, we’ve collected bikes for 2024, the warehouse is filled with two wheeled treasures that need some TLC and we need your help!
If you would like to volunteer on our Bike Giveaway Days, Dec. 7 and 8, please click on the button below:
Volunteer on Bike Giveaway Day
If you would like to volunteer as an individual to refurbish bikes any day from Sept. 30 – Dec. 5, skip down to the bottom of this page and answer the question about your bike mechanic experience (none required!), agree to the waiver that pops up and then you can schedule a shift based on your experience with bike repair – from none to expert mechanic – note, we have all the bike tools you’ll need to do your job. If you’d like to sign up for a shift with a group of friends or a work group, you can do so by emailing our Volunteer Coordinator at volunteer@fb4kdetroit.org and they will help you pick a date that works for your team.
