As a member or supporter of the CrossPurpose Cycling Team, you're a part of a group of passionate, driven people. We care about riding hard, having fun, and building community in the process.
Most importantly, we ride to raise support for our neighbors, who are pursuing life transformation through career and community development. As Anita – a 2021 graduate – said, "I received the CrossPurpose scholarship a week after hitting rock bottom, and my time here has changed my life."
Your company, family, and friends can join you in this opportunity of a lifetime by sponsoring your ride. They can sponsor just a mile, or ten, or all 118! In this packet, you'll find a summary of CrossPurpose, information about the CrossPurpose Cycle Team, fundraising benefits and levels, and sponsorship opportunities.
We'll see you at the starting line!
Data as of Febuary 2023
We exist to abolish economic, relational, and spiritual poverty through career and community development When we started working with our neighbors in northeast Denver in 2008, we knew that the problem of poverty could not be solved with fragmented or relief-based approaches Instead, we focused on creating a model that would eliminate poverty itself, rather than simply lessening its effects By participating in our tuition-free career and community development program, our students (called Leaders) can graduate from poverty and participate in meaningful work
For every $1 invested in our Leaders, we see a $6.45 return, based on earned income, decreases in government benefits, and taxes paid
We want to change that
