Join the Fight
Donate
We ride to create young leaders in advocacy and support organizations that fight sex trafficking.
Your donations support:
Donations given toward the 2023 team goal will support prevention work and survivor services at the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children and programs for our Community Grant recipients.
Funds are split equally between both organizations
The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children
As the nation's clearinghouse and comprehensive reporting center for all issues related to the prevention of and recovery from child victimization, NCMEC leads the fight against abduction, abuse, and exploitation - because every child deserves a safe childhood.
PTP Community Grants
Each summer as our teams bike down the West coast, we connect with communities through partnerships with local organizations and experts raising awareness about sex trafficking. In order to support these communities even further, organizations along our route have the opportunity to receive a $5,000 grant towards their anti-trafficking programming.
Seattle, Washington
REST exists to expand pathways to freedom, safety, and hope in order to end sex trafficking. They will use their PTP Community Grant toward their Enrichment Services, which provide a safe space to rest, connect with other survivors, build a community of support, and get assistance in accessing resources like housing, employment, education, healthcare, transportation, mental health and chemical dependency services.
Portland, OR
Safety Compass's mission is to offer support for survivors of commercial sexual exploitation and sex trafficking navigating the criminal and social justice systems in Clackamas, Marion, and Washington Counties, Oregon. Safety Compass will use their PTP Community Grant to help open the North Star Reception Center, which provides temporary stay at a secured location for survivors awaiting housing placement, staffed by culturally specific advocates while awaiting long-term housing placement.
Lompoc, CA
NCRCCPC's mission is to reduce the incidence of and vulnerability to sexual assault, child abuse and human trafficking by providing education and prevention skills to community children and adults, and to alleviate the trauma experienced by survivors of these crimes by providing direct services. NCRCCPC will use the PTP Community Grant for their Prevention Education programs like "Word on the Street", which teaches youth 14-19 years old what to be aware of as far as the tricks and traps that exploiters use to groom the vulnerable into a life of being trafficked.
