Bike Me! Collective

The Bike Me! Bicycle Collective is a not-for-profit student and community-run collective promoting the bicycle as a viable means of transportation. The collective unites local cyclists and advocates to create a self-sustaining community. From their work shed in the back parking lot, Bike Me! will promote cycling throughout Greensboro through basic maintenance workshops, bike recycling, basic riding classes, and fun biking events.

Farm Labor Organizing Committee (FLOC)

The goal of FLOC is to empower workers through collective bargaining and gains in worker health and safety. The FLOC office will serve the members of the organization as well as the immigrant population at large in Western NC. FLOC hopes to establish a workers center for Triad area residents in order to support primarily immigrant workers in resolving labor issues, also providing general assistance and services including translation/interpretation, legal assistance, and income tax help. The HIVE and existing office will also be used as an organizing hub for our current campaign to pressure the tobacco industry in order to gain rights and dignity for tobacco workers in North Carolina.

Food Not Bombs

Food Not Bombs (FNB) groups around the country and world have been feeding people for free for nearly 25 years. The local FNB organization has been building community around food for several years, bringing people together over the dinner table to learn from each other and solve problems that affect all levels of Greensboro society. The HIVE will be hosting FNB’s full-service kitchen that will allow them to expand their cooking capacity. The kitchen will also be available to the general HIVE community.

Fund for Democratic Communities

The Fund for Democratic Communities (F4DC) is a new kind of non-profit foundation supporting community-based initiatives and institutions working to make communities better places to live through authentic democracy.

Better ideas emerge in communities when more voices are engaged in debating problems and solutions. Those ideas are more likely to come to life when the people who are most affected have studied together and decided collectively on a course of action. Viewing democracy as an essential basis for building sustainable, effective organizations and communities, F4DC makes grants, provides direct technical assistance, conducts research, and produces materials to facilitate the development of grassroots institutions and capacity.
