Volunteers Needed: Support and Encourage

We're looking for enthusiastic volunteers to join our team and support the ICAN Shine Bike program! Spotters play a crucial role in providing encouragement and physical support to riders as they work towards transitioning to two wheels. No prior experience is needed, and the minimum age requirement is 14 years.

Volunteers will have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact in the lives of individuals with Down Syndrome while gaining valuable experience. Additionally, ICAN Shine Bike Program provides an online volunteer overview to new volunteers, ensuring everyone feels prepared and confident in their role.

High school National Honor Society (NHS) students can earn 2 hours of volunteer time for each session they participate in, making this a rewarding opportunity for students seeking to give back to their community. Join us in making a difference and empowering individuals with Down Syndrome to achieve their goals!

​Cost:  DSAV Members $50 / Non-Members $75
