Make An Impact
Our Biking programs teach Boston youth to ride bikes around the JP and Roxbury area, coaching them through a Learn-To-Ride session, as well as Short Ride and Long Ride sessions, depending on skill level. This is a great opportunity to support youth development through getting outside!
YES will seek volunteer coaches in March 2026 who are dedicated and committed to developing and inspiring the passion and skills of the young athletes.
Requirements: High energy and willingness to coach and inspire youth in the basic fundamentals of biking.
