At pelotonia we're driven by our mission: to engage, inspire, and challenge a community committed to change the world by accelerating innovative cancer research.
Pelotonia exists to engage, inspire, and challenge a community committed to change the world by accelerating innovative cancer research. Since its founding in 2008, pelotonia has raised over $315 million which has been invested in high-impact cancer research including prevention, diagnostics, and treatment, as well as the launch of the pelotonia institute for immuno-oncology. As a centerpiece of its year-round fundraising efforts, pelotonia hosts a three-day experience that includes a weekend of cycling, entertainment, and volunteerism. Thanks to its generous funding partners, pelotonia is able to direct 100 percent of every community-raised dollar to cancer research.
