Community workshops are offered throughout the month. If you want to help make more shop times available to people, you can volunteer toward becoming a shop coordinator The minimum commitment is 18hrs in a rolling 3-month period, and it can be some of the most gratifying volunteer work around! Women/Trans/Femme Workshops are offered on first and third Monday of each month (6 - 9 PM).
This workshop is run similarly to our Community Workshops but in a supportive, all Women/Trans/Femme (WTF) atmosphere. WTF hours are open to anyone who identifies as female, transgender, femme, genderqueer, trans-masculine, trans-feminine, or feels that their socialization or treatment as a woman, transperson, and/or femme has impeded their participation in bicycle mechanics.

Earn-a-Bike
Report
Earn-a-Bike is one of YBP's most popular programs. Whether you're short on the scratch to buy a bicycle or you want to know everything that's making your ride roll, Earn-a-Bike is a fantastic path towards transportation empowerment! You'll need to complete two goals to earn your bike.
One is skill-based: you'll work your way through a checklist of bicycle repair basics, learning how to do everything from fixing a flat to straightening a stem to overhauling a bottom bracket.In the process, you'll also be moving towards the second goal: volunteering at least 12 hours within a three-month period.

Kids’ Programs
Report
Nurturing young cyclists and budding mechanics is one of YBP's most important goals. Most of us first fell in love with bikes as kids. YBP's youth programming aims to make that two-wheeled joy accessible to all children, while also offering lessons in mechanics, community, outdoor activity, and all that our favorite machine can help teach.
Community Impact
Report
In addition to operating our community bike shop, the Yellow Bike Project serves the community with many specialized programs and partnerships to meet particular needs. When a bike share company pulled out of the Austin market, Yellow Bike Project received over 400 of their bikes. With the help of community donors and volunteers, we were able to get the special tools to replace proprietary bike parts and get these bikes back out on the streets.
