Hi Friends,
Our yearly fundraiser is Tailwind for Tools. This year we had a goal of raising $6,000 to help keep the shop running strong for the coming year. We are excited to announce that we met this goal!
Your donations go a long way in helping The Recyclery serve our community cyclists.
Help us exceed our goal and get a STRONG TAILWIND for 2022!
In spite of all of the difficulties the world has faced in the past year, we have been lucky enough to be able to continue to help our community members around Chicagoland.
Here are a few of this year’s highlights:
This year has also come with an increase in expenses. The ongoing bike shortage has continued to drive up the cost of parts from our wholesalers. Additionally, we have increased our staff wages to make sure that they are being fairly compensated for their time and efforts.
This program is specifically catering to the Femme, Trans, Women, and Non-Binary members of our community. We’re aiming provide a welcoming, safe space for individuals who have historically been excluded by the bicycling community.
This program will be led by our new staff member Kingston! Please make sure to give Kingston a warm welcome next time you see them in the shop.
We have a weekly facebook event for the program that you can find here.
We ask for people who don’t identify as FTWN-B to come to our general Open Shop Hours every Sunday from 10 am – 2 pm instead.
Hi Everyone,
To keep our staff and volunteers safe, we have decided to cancel all public facing programs for Feb 2 – Feb 3. Stay warm and safe, can’t wait to see everyone soon!
The Recyclery Collective
