El Grupo is a youth cycling organization that provides empowering and fun skill-building activities on the bike resulting in self-confidence and leadership skills to be active and healthy members of the community. Our mission is to empower youth through bicycles. We aim to instill life-long healthy habits and build character and camaraderie through bicycle riding, racing, and outreach. Through our programs, we are getting youth on bikes, and they in turn are teaching, inspiring, and empowering other youth to ride, enjoy, and love bikes. Through donations from the community, El Grupo provides all the equipment necessary for kids to enjoy cycling. With financial support from grants and individual donors, we offer our programs at no to low cost, eliminating the barrier to entry.
