Fundraising Page & Beneficiary
This team is fundraising for FreeCycles, a rad nonprofit community bike shop that is so much more than a bike shop. They are such an important gathering space for many events in our community, including a lot of grassroots resistance efforts - everything from local musical performances to anti-ICE trainings to Revel - a grassroots singing and movement space. Basically, when a group needs a space to host their event, FreeCycles is the community's go-to. They are currently fundraising on a larger scale to pay off their property loan, which will allow more funding to flow directly to programming, ensuring they will remain a forever entity in Missoula. Donate here!

FAQs
Shred the what?
Shred the what?
The patriarchy isn't just one thing—it's all the systems that decide who gets to belong, who gets heard, who gets to take up space, and who has access to resources. It's in our daily lives, shaping everything from how safe we feel walking alone to whether we can afford to exist.
In the outdoors, it looks like gatekeeping, media and businesses treating women and underrepresented folks as an afterthought, and a culture that has made too many people feel like the outdoors weren't for them.
Shredding the patriarchy means we're changing that story. We're using our love of skiing, snowboarding, and getting outside to dismantle those barriers—one bike ride, one summit, one lap, one person at a time.

How does the fundraising work?
How does the fundraising work?
If you choose to fundraise, you'll be invited to set up a fundraising page that will allow you to securely raise funds for your chosen organizations or groups.
The beneficiaries should be local to you and serving people who need the support the most -- think mutual aid or organizations that serve immigrant communities, domestic violence survivors, and unsheltered people. You know your community the best.
You create the page, and we'll be there with you every step of the way to answer questions and help you be as successful as possible.
