Fundraising

PEDAL WITH A PURPOSE!

By registering for the Alzheimer's Association Ride to End ALZ®, you've joined much more than a bike ride. You are now a part of a movement dedicated to raising funds and awareness to advance research toward the first survivor of Alzheimer’s.

Fundraising is encouraged but not required for our Classic event. All other Ride events require an initial registration donation and a minimum fundraising amount of $500.

You’re not in this alone — we’ll provide fundraising support to help you go the distance. Plus, you can earn one-of-a-kind Ride to End ALZ gear as you raise funds to advance promising Alzheimer’s research. Take these tools for a spin and get rolling with your fundraising:

RIDE HUB

The Ride Hub is your fundraising headquarters and go-to for resources to help you cruise to your fundraising goal. Here you’ll find your personal fundraising webpage ready to customize with your story. Riders who update their page with their personal reason for participating — their “why” — typically raise four times more than those who don’t. From the Ride Hub you can also set up a Facebook Fundraiser, send pre-written emails and create a custom link for your page to post on social media.

ALZ FUNDRAISING MOBILE APP

The mobile app is a great way to keep fundraising at your fingertips while you’re on the go. You can send texts, share your QR code, post on social media — even deposit checks! These are just a few of the ways you can use this convenient tool to switch your fundraising to high gear. Learn more and download the mobile app here.

STAFF AND VOLUNTEER SUPPORT

In addition to the extensive fundraising tools found in your Ride Hub, the Ride to End ALZ staff and volunteer committee will help coach you from the moment you register until you cross the finish line. And because your fellow participants are the heart of Ride to End ALZ, we've built an online Ride Community. All participants have members-only access to ask questions, share experiences and cheer one another on.

INCENTIVE GIFTS AND RECOGNITION

You can earn incredible rewards and recognition along your fundraising journey. By reaching special fundraising milestones, you can qualify for premier gifts available only through Ride to End ALZ. Raise $1,250 to reach Champion status and enjoy additional elite perks. Raise $5,000 to join the Platinum Passport Program and participate in any other Ride to End ALZ event for the next year without having to meet the event's fundraising requirement.

WE’RE IN THIS TOGETHER

Set an ambitious goal and go for it! We’re here for every leg of your fundraising journey to help you succeed.
