MoBo Bicycle Co-op Volunteeer and Shop Manual

Mission Statement

The MoBo Bicycle Cooperative is a non-profit volunteer-run cooperative dedicated to making cycling accessible and practical to everyone in the greater Cincinnati area. We build community by providing a welcoming and communal workspace, knowledgeable staff, and the tools and parts for cyclists of all ages and skill levels to repair, maintain and acquire bicycles. Members learn from and teach one another by sharing knowledge and experience. Mobo facilitates healthy and sustainable transportation through bicycle programs, events, and advocacy in our immediate community and beyond.

Vision Statement

Mobo Bicycle Cooperative envisions a world made healthier through the increase of people using bicycles for environmental, social, creative and practical purposes. We believe that cycling and its benefits should be made equally accessible to people from all walks of life. We see that the promotion of the social and educational aspects of cycling creates empowered individuals and communities. We see the intrinsic value cycling has for developing community, and we acknowledge that as our culture and infrastructure become more inclusive of bicycles, quality of life is enhanced for all.

3. Making and Receiving Donations

We accept all parts and bikes regardless of condition. If the donor asks for a donation receipt, fill out a receipt for them. Donation receipts should not include the value of the bike or part -- that is between the donor and the IRS to determine. Most people that make donations are not concerned about getting a receipt, for this reason we only give them out if they ask.
