About The Ride 2023-11-29T10:42:57-05:00

Our History and Impact

The Northeast AIDS Ride, now known as Cycle for the Cause, was started in 1995 in response to the AIDS epidemic. We continue to make the three-day journey from Boston to New York City every year, raising funds and awareness to further our progress towards ending HIV and AIDS.

With your help, The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center is able to provide comprehensive, community-based HIV and AIDS prevention and education, as well as support programs for people living with HIV and their loved ones. By joining Cycle for the Cause you are not just raising funds that support The Center’s community of LGBTQ+ New Yorkers—you are also becoming an active participant in eradicating HIV and AIDS for good.

The end of HIV is in sight. Your participation and fundraising will help ensure we get there.

Learn more about how you can participate and what to expect on the ride.
