The Good Ride — a cycling event designed to bring awareness to cancer research, survivorship programs and public policy initiatives, as well as create a positive change in the community — will roll out from Blakeney Professional Center on 8835 Blakeney Professional Drive in Charlotte on May 10 for its first annual ride.

24 Foundation enjoys the support of some fantastic events! Our friends at The Good Ride have a couple of fun and easy ways to help their efforts to beat cancer and support 24 Foundation. After all – the only thing better than fighting cancer? Fighting cancer with friends! Here’s how you can support The Good Ride:

A Good Night 

In gearing up for the ride, The Good Ride and Block & Grinder are hosting A Good Night in Support of 24 Foundation on April 21 from 5 p.m. – 10 p.m. at Block & Grinder on 2935 Providence Rd in Charlotte.  The happy hour event will feature live jazz music from Nita B Trio, craft beer from Triple C Brewing Company and food by founding sponsor, Block & Grinder. A portion of the evening’s proceeds will be donated to 24 Foundation. The event is free and all are encouraged to attend!

The more you eat, the more raised to kick cancer’s booty! A huge thanks to Block and Grinder for setting this up!
