Climate change impacts us all – everywhere. Whatever you love, it’s going to be harder to do because of this crisis. But nonprofits are leading the way, despite only receiving 3% of charitable giving in the US annually. So let’s rise – now. Pick a challenge involving something you love. Make a team. Whatever you decide to do, share it on your socials. Post about climate change. Talk about bike advocacy. Share a video about protecting wild places. Raise funds. Go big. And, we have great prizes for you!

This day of action is all about sharing your joy of adventure and raising funds for organizations by inviting your friends, family, bike club, pick-up soccer crew, neighbors, and whoever else you can think of to join you!

Just make sure you spend some time letting people know climate change is a priority and they can help you take action by donating. Come up with something unique for you: stream a DND campaign or take a day to walk a hundred laps around your garden or spend a week volunteering – the challenge is up to you!

For more information, check out our toolkit here.

We are calling all cyclists, hikers, walkers, skateboarders, stand-up paddle boarders, content creators, pogo-ers, gamers, streamers, outdoors enthusiasts, artists – you name it – to do what you love while you connect with others about how you’re helping to protect the planet.

Let people know that the climate crisis matters to you and they can help you take action by donating or joining you! Come up with something unique for you: stream a DND campaign or take a day to walk a hundred laps around your garden, pick up trash, or spend the day volunteering – the challenge is up to you. Whatever you do, use it to fundraise and talk about climate action and we will match dollar for dollar.

All you need to do is sign up and pick an activity that inspires and challenges you. There are no boundaries to what you can do.

When you register, you can select from our full list of more than 100 nonprofits that do the hard work of protecting the planet.

And, it’s easy to start a team when you register. You can make this a group effort and have even more fun enrolling your friends and family in this day of action.

Why does Climate Rise matter?

It’s a tough time for non-profits. It is possible that the non-profits you love and value may not survive.

At Climate Ride we are determined to see our grants program and its support for climate and active transportation survive and continue to thrive. Part of that effort includes keeping our community connected, growing, and learning how and where we can be a beacon of hope.

Your outreach and fundraising have profound ripple effects. Taking on this challenge is a statement about your values and your vision for our future.

Who are the beneficiaries?

If you register through our Donor Drive platform, you can choose from the more than 100 incredible beneficiary organizations in the Climate Ride network! One of the things that make Climate Ride such an effective charitable event is that you can select the organization(s) you wish to benefit through the Climate Ride grants program. Our beneficiaries were selected for their work on the environment, conservation, sustainability, climate education, and active transportation advocacy.

We are grateful for your support.

Can I sign up my friends/family/pets?

We totally encourage you to! Please share the registration link with anyone. This is about building a community and bringing out the best in all of us.

I just heard about this but can’t sign up now. Can I do it another time?

Of course! You can sign up now and do an activity of your choice at any time you like!

Partnering with Climate Ride as part of Climate Rise was an amazing and rewarding experience. Took the stress of the background work behind a fundraiser, and they were there helping and supporting along the way! Would join them again in the future. 10/10

After participating in seven Climate Ride events (eight if you count Climate Rise!) I continue to be impressed with the Climate Ride staff as well as the community of riders–I couldn’t ask to be part of a kinder, more thoughtful, and incredibly fun group of people, all brought together by our desire to combine our passions for cycling with making the world a better place.

I just participated in my first Climate Ride in Western New York. It certainly will not be my last! The event was very well organized. It was a wonderful group of people that care about one of the great challenges we face today, climate change. Even more important, it was group of people trying to address this problem by personally taking action to make change happen to better our world.

Glacier Ride 2022 may be the best life experiences I have ever had. The park is fantastic, the guides and crew worked so hard to make it go well and were so fun to be around. I am a quiet person and everyone made me feel included. I’ve made some lifelong friends.
