Bike Durham

Bike Durham is a nonprofit 501c3. We advocate for investment in sustainable transportation in Durham: connected sidewalks, protected bike paths and public transit that are accessible and safe for everyone.

We accomplish our goals through events such as bike rides, walks and educational classes.We educate our membership to advocate for policy change. We monitor and hold accountable local government and collaborate with other advocacy organizations to influence state and national policy. Finally, we have educational programs, for example, we take our bike riding and walk safety into Durham Public Schools to teach children how to ride a bike and do so safely. Our volunteer needs often include day of events and tasks such as set up, break down, greeting and directing guests, helping to table, etc. We also have a desire to work with students on an ongoing basis in areas such as administrative work, assistance with managing fundraising, planning for events, implementing communication plans including social media. I would like to work with students as interns through class projects and career preparation.
