Cycle for Strong Kids

Kelowna gold medallist Kelsey Serwa, Olympic biathlete Julia Ransom and local philanthropist Thomas Budd will be pedalling for dollars at the YMCA’s Cycle for Strong Kids charity event. 

The Y’s largest fundraiser of the year is set for Sunday, under a big tent outside Kelowna's H2O Centre.

Participants will cycle on stationary bikes to raise money that helps underprivileged kids attend Y programs, such as child care, day camps, aquatics, employment readiness and before and after school enrichment.

“More than a quarter of the kids who take part at the Y are only able to do so because of the financial assistance provided by our generous donors,” says Margo Buckley, Y fund development officer.

The event’s goal is to raise $100,000.
