Pelotonia

Pelotonia is a passionate community united in the fight to end cancer. Founded in 2008, Pelotonia has grown into a powerful movement, raising over $230 million for innovative cancer research. The organization hosts an annual bike ride that brings together thousands of riders, volunteers, and donors, all committed to one goal: funding life-saving cancer research.

OUR 2024 GOAL: In the last seven years, Team Hamilton Parker has raised over $228,000, with 100% of all donations going directly to life-saving cancer research. Together, we can make 2024 even better!
