Rodman Ride for Kids School on Wheels Riders

Our Ride goal was $90,000 and we ended up raising $108,000 thanks to our riders and donors.

Hundreds of volunteers cheered the riders on along the course, water stops, and finish line to made sure riders were hydrated, nourished, felt safe and supported during their ride. Don Rodman generously hosted a delicious barbecue afterwards for all riders and volunteers. This year’s event raised $10.3 million, an increase of nearly 15% from last year for the 46 Ride for Kids benefiting agencies. School on Wheels has been fortunate to be a part of the Rodman Ride for 6 years. It is our largest, most important fundraiser event of the year.

The Rodman Ride for Kids is an umbrella matching gift charity raising funds for youth-focused social service agencies that support at-risk kids in Massachusetts. The Ride for Kids and its affiliated agencies fundraise year-round, culminating with The Ride event, a 25, 50, and 100-mile non-competitive cycling tour, each fall. The expenses associated with the Ride for Kids are less than 3% of the total revenue, and they are all underwritten. This means that when you donate to the Ride or Kids, 100% of your donation will directly benefit at-risk kids!
