Our Partnerships
One of the most common barriers to recreation is the inability to afford the necessary equipment to participate in the outdoors. As the socio-economic divide continues to widen in our community, we at Shifting Gears want to do everything we can to eliminate that barrier so that everyone who wants to get outside and be healthy can do so. That often translates to free programming!
To provide free programming, we offer various opportunities to get involved with our programs, events, and more. Below you will find the ways to support getting more women outside and making Bellingham a happier and healthier community!
