Ride, Walk, Run to Support Grady!

Grady can’t do it alone. It takes a team.

Let’s raise some critical funds for Grady! Registration is $25. Everyone gets a virtual goody bag and is eligible for great incentives, starting with a VeloCity t-shirt when you raise $50! There is no fundraising minimum and no age minimum. No wheels? No problem. We invite you to join us to ride, run, or walk virtually between now and November 7. Choose to ride 20, 62, or 100 miles, walk or run 5, or 10 kilometers, or set your distance.

The pandemic has given us a firsthand glimpse into the critical role that Grady plays in our community.

VeloCity Atlanta Ride for Grady 

In the face of a global pandemic, Grady stands strong. But the fight is not over and we need you more than ever. While we cannot physically be together, we do hope you will join us to ride, on Nov. 7, 2020 in support of Grady Hospital.

Why Grady?

At Grady, lifesaving never stops. Every hour of the day, patients receive the best medical care from 3,000 physicians who represent 80 medical specialties and are recognized as some of the nation’s top physicians. Since Grady opened 128 years ago, it has provided the same quality of care for rich and poor, black and white. Grady creates an open, safe space for all who enter to receive the care they need. Grady is known as one of the nation’s best trauma centers. Today, it is managing the dynamic impact of COVID-19 while still healing disease, caring for burns and correcting injuries – all while delivering compassionate care safely and keeping Atlanta healthy.

We hope you will join us.

Every mile and every dollar matters!
