Charities Make Dreams Come True

Peter Sagan said "My Fondo is not just a bike race. It’s an opportunity to support kids through local charities. I'm excited to work with the following organizations because we need to start with the little ones first.  Only with a good foundation can they achieve many of their own monuments."

The King Ridge Foundation’s mission is to give at-risk youth the chance they deserve to succeed in life. They support smaller organizations throughout the us who focus on unique youth needs in their community.

The Specialized Foundation is providing kids with the tools to achieve academic health and social success through cycling.

The Adventure Risk Challenge’s mission is to empower underserved youth through integrated literacy and wilderness experiences. ARC supports youth in developing skills in literacy, leadership and life.

Fundraise for support, or join the Gala Dinner with Peter Sagan.
