In this episode of The Nonprofit Spotlight, Cheron Taylor talks with Shruti Kaul from BICAS (Bicycle Inter-Community Art & Salvage) a worker self-directed nonprofit 501(c)(3) bicycle center located just north of downtown Tucson.
Relying largely on generous donations from our community, and responsible stewardship of those donations, BICAS is able to provide a variety of programs to learn how to fix a bicycle, earn a bicycle, create unique art from recycled materials, and provide programs specifically targeted towards youth. We believe in bicycles and other human-powered machines as essential vehicles for transportation justice, and we are always striving to make them more accessible to our community.
Elva De La Torre recently spoke with Haley Coles, Executive Director of SPW, about their mission and work across the state.
Elva was joined in the studio by Linda Hollis from St. Luke’s Home.
