For more than 20 years, CORBA has been run on a volunteer basis without an office or a central business location. Volunteer directors work from home, their offices, or wherever they happen to be. We have a P.O. Box, and our monthly board and member meetings are held at locations around the San Fernando Valley, Eastern Ventura County and the West Side.
CORBA is growing and needs your help. We’re looking for office space from which to operate. We need a central location from which to coordinate our advocacy campaigns, run the Fat Tire Fest, reach out to land managers and run our education and outreach programs. If possible, we’d also like to let go of our rented storage facility, and be able to keep our records, supplies and literature on hand.
If you have or know of an available office with work space for two or three people, and/or a meeting space for occasional use, we’re interested. We’re open to sharing office space with an existing business or nonprofit. Inexpensive or donated space would allow us put more of our resources into advocacy and education rather than administration. CORBA is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and donations–such as office space–can be tax-deductible. We’d love to hear from you if you have or know of a suitable space.
We’re also on the lookout for an intern to help with some of CORBA’s administrative functions. Somebody energetic and passionate about mountain biking who wants to gain valuable experience in advocacy, event organization, and grass-roots campaigning would be ideal. If you think you might be able to help, or know someone who can, let us know.
