Journey of Hope Bike Team Stops at North Suburban YMCA
Group of college students travels coast-to-coast each summer, raising funds and awareness on behalf of individuals with disabilities.
The Journey of Hope Bike Team returned to North Suburban YMCA in Northbrook on July 23rd, greeting summer campers and sharing their message to “create a community, one relationship at a time, where the abilities of all people are recognized and valued.” This group of college students travels coast-to-coast each summer, raising funds and awareness on behalf of individuals with disabilities. This is the 11th year they have made a stop at the North Suburban YMCA.
The annual Journey of Hope cross-country ride is sponsored by The Ability Experience, a national philanthropic organization of the Pi Kappa Phi national fraternity. The ride is completed by fraternity members who travel 4,000 miles together from the West Coast to Washington, D.C.
