Bike for the Brain, a 501(c)(3) organization, hosts an annual community bicycle ride and event to increase awareness that all people have the potential to recover from mental health disorders; that these are brain-based emotional, behavioral, and cognitive experiences that are common to many people; and to provide funding to Kansas City based organizations that help people to reclaim their mental health.
More than 500 people participated in last years event. We have awarded 26 grants totalling $67,500. We are growing in partnerships, information sharing, and volunteer involvement. Come join us for the fun!
