The Ride for Kids is a one-day cycling tour that raises money for nonprofit agencies that promote healthy, positive lives for children throughout New England. The Ride has raised over $30 million for a variety of organizations, such as, The House of Possibilities (aka HOPe) that serve children and families. Beneficiary organizations of The Ride work together, year round, to collaborate on the planning and implementation of this annual event.
Riders choose a 25, 50 or 100-mile bike tour through scenic flat routes in Southeastern Massachusetts and raise funds through corporate sponsorships and individual donations. We are proud to be an organization that benefits from The Ride. Since all the expenses associated with the event are underwritten, 100 percent of every donation to HOPe goes directly to our organization.
