BAHATI FOUNDATION

Who’s ready to ride into the long weekend?! 🙌🏾

This Saturday is extra special, we’re wrapping up our B-Smart Cycling Club season at Jefferson Leadership Academy in Long Beach, and we’re doing it in style. Our youth riders are hitting the streets for a 10-mile group ride to the lighthouse and back.

These young athletes have put in the work all season and this is their moment to shine. Thank you to our community of supporters, our staff, leadership academy and the youth for showing yup consistently.

The 8th Annual Bahati Bike Fest was more than a ride

it was a celebration of community, youth, and wellness.
We were honored to mark 15 years of the Bahati Foundation surrounded by families, riders, and supporters. Huge thank you to our volunteers and sponsors for standing with us and helping create meaningful opportunities for young people. We couldn’t do this without you.

Grateful for every mile shared and every young rider inspired.

Because of you, more kids experienced confidence, joy, and belonging this year—on bikes and beyond.
