Business membership is at the heart of our growing efforts to involve San Francisco companies in our work to promote the bicycle for everyday transportation.
Individual members have built the SF Bicycle Coalition from its origins over 40 years ago and have fueled our work ever since with time, energy and support. Seeking to expand on the success of our individual membership model, last year we launched our annual business membership program. Today, a rapidly growing list of over 20 San Francisco companies (see below) enjoy the benefits of year-round membership while helping to support our work in the process.
The benefits of business membership vary by level of support, and include complimentary individual memberships for employees, Commute by Bike classes, bike parking consultation, volunteer opportunities for employees, invitations to our quarterly business member happy hours, customized sponsorship opportunities and so much more.
Beyond these direct benefits, business members help build winning coalitions of support for safer, more livable streets in their neighborhoods. Business membership in the SF Bicycle Coalition sends a clear message of support to employees, customers and neighbors: we are invested in helping to make San Francisco a better place to live, work and bike.
In the coming year, the SF Bicycle Coalition is expanding the scope and profile of its business membership program as it becomes increasingly crucial to support the businesses in San Francisco that support better biking. Traditional avenues of support, such as sponsorship of our annual events like Winterfest, Bike to Work Day and the Golden Wheel Awards will qualify sponsoring companies for annual membership so that they have the opportunity to stay engaged in our work year-round.
Together, San Francisco businesses and the SF Bicycle Coalition will be working to improve the health and prosperity of everyone in our city by making it safer and easier to get around by bike. Get your business involved today!
