The history of Ride For The Living Global Challenge
In response to the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, we crafted a remote Virtual Ride For The Living experience so that people could still participate in this meaningful event from the comfort and safety of their own community. Virtual RFTL combined fitness and Holocaust education to help support JCC Krakow and survivors around the world.
Inspired by the success of the Virtual Ride, the RFTL Global Challenge continues this important mission and allows participants from around the world to join Ride For The Living remotely.
2021 GLOBAL CHALLENGE IN NUMBERS:
“I am joining RFTL Global Challenge to do my part to repair the world: raise awareness about the Holocaust, honor survivors, and support Jewish life.”
