Pelotonia has started a movement that inspires meaningful collective action by mobilizing purpose-driven communities and accelerating funding for innovative cancer research. This collective action involves a three-day experience that includes a weekend of cycling, entertainment, and volunteerism all with the goal to fund cancer research.
All proceeds raised by riders, virtual riders and volunteers go directly towards cancer research at the Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center – The James. Last year, the organization raised over $27.4 million for cancer research, bringing their 10-year total to over $184 million raised for cancer research. With their record-breaking 8,470 riders and 3,056 volunteers from more than 40 states, Pelotonia is making a major impact on cancer research.
In 2019, Pelotonia Ride Weekend is scheduled for August 2-4. Participants who register as a rider have the option of 15 routes to choose from, ranging from 25 miles to 200 miles. Each of their riders has a fundraising commitment starting at $1,250 – $3,000 with 100% of every single dollar they raise going back to cancer research.
At OppGen, we believe in making a difference in our community. We are committed to causes such as Pelotonia as they, not only have a local but global impact on a universal struggle to end cancer. Our team has been helping execute a lead generation initiative through digital advertising for this year’s Pelotonia race and fundraising efforts toward cancer research. This has allowed Pelotonia to maximize their digital advertising impact so 100% of every dollar raised can go towards cancer research.
Are you interested in joining the movement? There are many different options available for riders of all types. Let’s work to achieve a healthier world and live our best lives. Please visit the Pelotonia website for more information on how to register.
