Local bike shops know their communities best, making them uniquely equipped to make change happen. Founded on the belief that getting more butts on bikes is crucial for the health of our communities, the QBP Community Grant helps bike shops create real, local change while contributing to the sustainability of the industry.
 
Dealer’s Choice brands and the QBP Fund have generously donated $50,000 to support the grant. Individual award amounts will vary based on number of applicants and project scale.
 
Apply for funding today to take the first step towards getting your project off the ground and improving your community.
