This August, I'm participating in Raise + Ride to fundraise for Phoenix Bikes, an Arlington nonprofit that uniquely combines youth education programs with a full service bike shop. Phoenix is a fantastic organization that educates youth in grades 6-12 in bike mechanics, allows them to earn their very own bike for free, and gets them out riding, racing, and giving back to the community with their new skills.
In addition to youth programs, Phoenix donates bikes to community members in need and provides affordable sales and service.
By supporting my ride, you're making Phoenix's mission possible: harnessing the power of bikes to help youth build passion, purpose and a place in the community! This organization means a lot to me and my family, so please consider giving to help us reach our Raise + Ride goals and support a great cause!
I'll be riding 9 miles which I did last year with my mom in the trailer and will be attempting to complete on my own bike this year!
