LIFT Boston Volunteer Nights
Written by Boston Biker on Feb 09Got this in the email, looks like fun.
——————-
“The LIFT Bike Project, an organization dedicated to donating refurbished bicycles to homeless and low-income residents of Cambridge, Boston, and Somerville, will be holding“refurb nights” Every Wednesday from 7-9 PM, volunteers will gather at Quad Bikes (http://www.quadbikes.org) to help fix up bikes for a giveaway on the Green Streets Initiative’s April Walk/RIde Day, when 100 people will become the proud new owners of a great
set of wheels.
Refurb nights are both fun and a great way to meet a range of people with a passion for community service and biking. While no mechanic experience is required, volunteers should come prepared to learn something new. Whether you’re a refurb night veteran or hearing about this opportunity for the first time, come on down – everyone is welcome.
For those who can’t make it to refurb nights, there are other ways to help. Maybe you have an old bike lying in your basement – LIFT would love for you to donate it.
Please feel free to contact Ben at liftbostonbikeproject@gmail.
