In order to strengthen the organizational capacity of Bike and Build, we need to rely on the strong support and varied skill set of our program’s alumni. The AVP’s purpose is to cultivate alumni support and utilize the diverse alumni skill set to strengthen the organizational capacity of Bike & Build. The AVP is split into committees. A brief description of each committee is below. If you are interested in joining, please email Amelia Hanley at
Public Relations - Spread the word about Bike & Build via recruitment, media outreach, newsletters, and merchandise
Fundraising - Provide current riders with tips to get that $4,000 raised, explore external fundraising options and develop a strong base of repeat donors
Equipment, Safety, & Training - Evaluate safety policy to ensure that safety remains Bike & Build’s top priority, work with bike shops to solicit gear donations
Hosts & Routes - Maintain relationships with hosts for each trip, ensure that routes are evaluated after each summer and that information gets passed along.
