ACCION International invites you to bring the world closer to a sustainable solution to poverty.
Thank you, MicroBikers, for helping to beat this year’s fundraising goal by raising $37,972! Congratulations to all the riders and many MicroBike supporters!
We are already gearing up for next year’s ride. It’s never too early to build a team and start raising money to pedal against poverty! Contact us today to get started.
Check out photos from this year’s event and please share yours!
Share your stories, photos and videos of your ride with your supporters and the ACCION global community through Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, and YouTube!
Join us, October 3rd or 4th, in creating “micro-rides” in communities around the world to raise awareness about the problem of global poverty. With your help, these “micro-rides” will direct needed resources and attention to microfinance – a leading anti-poverty strategy.
MicroBike is an initiative of ACCION International, a global nonprofit organization in microfinance. Click on "About Us" and “Event Information” on left to learn more about our work and how you can help through MicroBike.
Ready to form or join a team? Here’s how to get started…
How the "micro-rides" work:
Sign up by clicking on “Register as a Participant” on left to either become a team captain and form a team or to join an existing team as a participant. There is a $50 registration fee.
Design your own ride by selecting a local bike route and distance that appeal to you.
Challenge yourself by determining your own fundraising goals. We’ll provide you with a toolkit to get you started.
Send messages to your friends and family, and track your fundraising online.
Become an activist! Gather signatures for ACCION’s International Day to Eradicate Poverty Petition and help spread the word about poverty alleviation.
On October 3rd or 4th, pedal against poverty as you and your teammates set out on your chosen route.
For you:
Every registered rider will get a t-shirt!
Prizes will be awarded to teams and individuals for fundraising achievements!
