WE PROMOTE EDUCATION, ACCESS AND OPPORTUNITIES THAT INCREASE DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION IN CYCLING.
OUR FOCUS
There is inadequate diverse representation in Cycling competition, business, media, and development
opportunities. To sustainably grow our industry, we must first build authentic foundations of diversity from
within that don’t employ superficial or exploitive solutions. With ears on the ground in these communities,
we can provide the education, access, and opportunities that directly address the barriers they face. We
will start in North America and expand globally, because this is a global problem.
INTERSECTIONALITY IN CYCLING
Cycling has a unique ability to address intersecting areas where specific communities have been long
underserved. We look at the basic human need of safety and how to ensure that everyone feels safe riding a
bike, whether that be physical safety or psychological safety. We invest in programs that build
belongingness in cycling by creating inclusive cycling spaces regardless of gender or ethnicity. We
recognize that not everyone has equal access to outdoor experiences whether due to mobility, financial or
educational barriers. We believe that everyone deserves to reap the physical, mental and social benefits of
safety and belonging in cycling. By investing in cycling in these communities we can begin to address
inequalities head on and from multiple fronts.
Grow Cycling Foundation is supported by some of the best brands in the world.
They are committed to changing the status quo, doing the hard work, and are in it for the long haul. They
understand that this is not an easy problem to solve, but are with us every step of the way as we build a future
for cycling.
Thank you from all of us at Grow!
