The mission of the Ride Janie Ride Foundation is to provide direct financial assistance to Chicagoland individuals facing financial hardship resulting from ongoing medical treatment for various types of cancer.

For over a decade, the Ride Janie Ride Foundation has been bringing the community together for one common goal; to pay it forward.  What started as a way help to alleviate the financial burden of cancer treatments for our dear friend Janie Bawel, grew into an experience much larger than any of us could have imagined.  The annual event will take place on May 4, 2025, bringing together thousands of participants to raise funds for the nominiated recipients. If you would like to sign up, please click on the Event Registration button in the top right corner.

Since 2007, the Ride Janie Ride Foundation has benefited 91 recipients battling various types of cancer.  To nominate an individual in need, please visit our Nomination page.
