About Us
More than just a bike ride
At Ride for Hope, we believe every mile counts—not just on the bike, but in spreading awareness, inspiring action, and fostering a culture of compassion, sportsmanship, and fitness. Through our rides, we aim to unite Gen Z and Gen Alpha around the mission of supporting children and families in need while encouraging a healthier, more engaged generation.
Our Story
Ride for Hope is a student-led cycling initiative dedicated to raising funds and awareness for families affected by childhood cancer. Founded by Aarav Jadhav and Jakub Paul while they were juniors at Brookline High School, the organization began with an ambitious goal: to make a real difference for children and families supported by The Boston House: Hope and Healing for Children with Cancer.
Our first ride in May, from Boston to Provincetown, covered over 120 miles and raised more than $2,500 for The Boston House. Building on that success, this October we are taking on an even greater challenge: a Boston-to-New York City ride with the goal of raising over $5,000 to support The Boston House’s vital work.
Ride for Hope is about more than cycling—it’s about inspiring action, spreading awareness, and building a community of compassion, sportsmanship, and fitness. Every mile we ride is dedicated to supporting families and encouraging others to make a difference in their communities.
