Board Elections
We elect a board each year in November at our Annual General Meeting. We are always looking for new board members who are interested in fundraising, outreach, policy development, or governance of small non-profits. No board experience is required, and students are encouraged to run.
If you are interested in being involved, check out this board primer and contact charles@bikechain.ca to be matched with a current board member who can speak with you about their experiences on the board.
