Free bike programming under capitalism: Funding models and strategies

8 people are interested in this workshop

The structural inequity in our society has resulted in financial barriers to autonomous transportation (among many other things) for many communities. In an attempt to remedy this, a lot of programming at our shops and organizations is geared towards breaking down these barriers by providing free/by donation bikes, accessories, parts and shop time to folks that would otherwise be bikeless.

In this workshop we'll discuss the various strategies and funding structures we've used to give bikes, accessories, parts and shop time to folks that need them. We'll talk about what worked and what didn't and then open up the discussion for everyone to share their experiences and brainstorm strategies that might work for different types of shops and organizations.
