Vancouver Cycling Without Age Program Coordinator

Vancouver Cycling Without Age Society is a registered charity and volunteer-powered organisation based in Vancouver that provides recreational trishaw (3-wheeled bikes with a 2-person bench on the front) rides to seniors, and their families. Our goal is to break seniors free from social isolation and loneliness and help them to smile and reconnect with their loved ones and their community with the simple act of a bike ride. The Program Coordinator wants to bring joy to seniors who are socially isolated and marginalized. They are passionate about getting seniors outside into fresh air and feeling the wind in their hair. The Program Coordinator is responsible for coordinating the day to day operations and supporting the volunteers who are giving the rides. They are responsible for the delivery and quality of our care home and community ride programs.
