Ride for Refuge

What moves you?

Have you always wanted to get more involved with LFBS but didn’t know where to begin? Now is your chance!

LFBS is participating as a partner charity in Ride for Refuge on October 2, 2021 and you are officially invited to join our team- or start your own!

The Ride for Refuge is a covid-safe, family-friendly fundraiser held on Saturday, October 2, 2021 that supports charities working with displaced, vulnerable, and exploited people everywhere.

Ride for Refuge is a bike riding / walking / freestyle fundraiser event, and the funds we raise will go towards the work Little Footprints Big Steps does to help families and communities in Haiti. The Ride is the perfect opportunity for you to raise awareness and have fun while supporting LFBS.

RIDE used to be a biking/walking event only, but there is now a freestyle category, which means you can raise money any way you want- dancing, baking, playing an instrument, working out - really anything!

Check out this video for more information about the freestyle:

Join LFBS as a Team Captain!

What does a Team Captain do, exactly? To sum it up, Team Captains register a team online, invite others (clients, co-workers, friends, family) to join in, pick an activity, raise money, and encourage their team to do the same. On RIDE day, or on the day of your own event, you make sure your team participates, and celebrates! (You can read more about the Team Captain role here: https://rideforrefuge.org/captains.)

Register here - and don’t forget to select Little Footprints Big Steps as the charity that you are supporting!
