Exciting News!
After 7 terrific years under the wing of our parent company, eppur si muove inc., Get Women Cycling is ready to operate on its own as a non-profit entity (YAY!!). We believe this business change will open up new opportunities and facilitate our growth.
Begun in 2015, Get Women Cycling has:
conducted educational workshops for novice and experienced bicycle riders
led group rides demonstrating defensive riding techniques and basic repair fixes along the way
helped dispel body image barriers to biking
provided women nationwide with guidance and hands-on assistance with bicycle and accessory purchases
advocated for equitable transportation and policies in NYC and beyond
Get Women Cycling, envisions a healthy, eco-friendly world through the empowerment of femme inclusive mobility. Our mission is to help build healthier lifestyles and communities with equitable, reliable, and affordable bicycle transportation. Our programs activate civic engagement, offer education and support sustainable femme inclusive bicycle ridership - especially for economically disadvantaged families and individuals.
Join Us As An Advisor Or Board Member
We are currently seeking founding members of the board of directors and volunteer advisory groups. Board members will be actively involved in organizational governance, and are expected to attend quarterly board meetings, participate in at least one board committee, make a personal financial contribution/raise a minimum of $750 annually, and manage at least one donor or community partner relationship.
While all candidates with a passion for our cause will be considered, we are especially interested in Board Members with a strong knowledge of accounting, human resources, legal, media, and marketing, as well as those connected to local workforce development agencies, foundations, organized labor, cultural organizations, policymakers, and BIPOC and gender-inclusive communities.
We hope you’ll consider being part of this exciting transformation. Those interested in board service or advisory roles can complete our application here. Applications will be accepted until Wednesday, April 20, 2022.
Enthusiastically yours,
Angela Azzolino, Get Women Cycling Founder and Executive Director
