Ride for Refuge 2025

Every fall, Christie participates in The Ride for Refuge, a family-friendly fundraising cycle + walk in support of local charities serving refugees seeking hope, safety, and freedom.

This year, our goal is to once again raise $40,000 for Christie Refugee Welcome Centre.

You too can get involved! Become a team captain and recruit a team of cyclists and/or walkers from your own business, neighborhood, church, family, or another community you belong to and participate together with us on Friday October 3rd at Christie Pits or pick a day and location that works best for your group. To sign up as a team and participate in the RIDE for Refuge with Christie Refugee Welcome Centre, visit Toronto Christie Pits (Christie Refugee Welcome Centre) - RIDE 2025

Or, you can simply donate to one of our already existing teams who will be participating in the RIDE for Refuge. For a list of our 2025 RIDE for Refuge teams, see Toronto Christie Pits (Christie Refugee Welcome Centre) - RIDE 2025

Or, just come out and walk or cycle with us! We’d love to see you.
