Help Keep SHIFT NWT Rolling!

SHIFT NWT is a community-powered program launched in 2024 by Becca Denley, with support from the Healthy Choices Fund, Overlander Sports, Lawson Lundell, and the NWT Recreation and Parks Association. We're on a mission to shift how Yellowknifers move—one bike ride at a time.

Through SHIFT, residents can borrow a bike, e-bike, e-cargo bike, or e-trike for free in a 2-week session. No cost, no pressure—just a chance to see how active transportation could fit into everyday life.

SHIFT is 100% volunteer-run, but running a free program like this isn't free. We rely on community support to cover costs like insurance, maintenance, and bike gear. That's why we’ve launched this GoFundMe—to keep SHIFT accessible and growing.
