Staff & Volunteers
According to Jim Dion, a psychologist with over 30 years experience in retail, there should be no difference between how volunteers and employees are treated and what is expected of them. Museum gift shops are frequently volunteer run and work under this model.

Earn-a-Bike
Thanks to a program started by Bikes not Bombs, you can teach the next generation how to use tools and appreciate their bicycle. Some organizations expand on that idea by taking kids riding too, like Trips for Kids charters.
Valet Bike Parking
Getting more people to ride while advertising the organization by watching peoples bikes at different events around town.
Safety Education
Giving someone a bike and teaching them how to ride safetly go hand in hand. The League of American Bicyclists has a nicely pre-packaged program called BikeEd.
Helmet Distribution
Offering discounted or free helmets, everyone can afford to be safe.
Bicycle Art
Following Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle old bikes and parts can be turned into works of art! Resource Revival and BICAS are great examples.
