Ride for us in the TD Five Boro Bike Tour on May 1st

Get Out & Ride for Healthy School Food!

Would you love to get outdoors and ride your bike on car-free roads through all five boroughs of New York City? Riding in the TD Five Boro Bike Tour is a great way to see the city, enjoy the day, and help raise funds for healthy, plant-based foods in schools. We played a large role in laying the groundwork for Vegan Fridays in NYC schools, the largest initiative of its kind in the country with K-12 students eating plant-based meals one day a week. By riding for us, you help to support Vegan Fridays and our other efforts to get more plant-based foods on school menus, not just in NYC, but around the country, and to provide education for the whole school community: students, families, teachers, administrators, school staff, and food service staff.

Riding in the TD Five Boro Bike Tour is fun! It's a ride, not a race, and what a great way to see the city. There is a stop in each borough for an entertaining break with music, food, and of course, bathrooms! With your help we can ensure children, their families, and their teachers learn the benefits of moving toward a healthier, more plant-based diet for their health, to address climate change, and to be kinder to animals.

If you are interested, set up your fundraising page. Then you’ll provide your credit card to guarantee your minimum goal of $750. It's not difficult to do when you explain why you are joining the ride, and you'll have until April 27 to raise the funds. You raise funds by rallying friends, family, and networks to support your ride, and in turn, our work. By fundraising for the Coalition for Healthy School Food, more children in New York City schools and beyond can have a healthy future, and you and your supporters can feel great for helping.

Step 1: Create your fundraising page.
