Become a BWT Bike Mentor and get your community pedaling!

Ithaca NY

Description

Bike Walk Tompkins is seeking motivated people for our 2021 Bike Mentors program! Bike Mentors are volunteers that work directly with their friends, co-workers, neighbors, and other community members to encourage biking as a safe and convenient way to get around, stay healthy, and have fun. Mentors will receive extensive training and support to be able to help teach people how to bike, encourage more bicycling this summer with fun activities, and connect folks to all the bicycling resources available in our community. Mentors are expected to support BWT bike classes, host bike rides, and provide 1-on-1 support to friends and family. Mentors may also qualify for a $1200 scholarship if they’ll be supporting a low-income community, community of color, or other marginalized community in Tompkins County that they are connected to. Learn more about this opportunity and apply today at www.bikewalktompkins.org/bikementors! Deadline to apply is Sunday, May 23.
