This project supports David's fundraising for Face of America: Gettysburg. Funds received will be donated to World T.E.A.M. Sports, a 501(c)(3) that provides athletic opportunities for adaptive athletes.
About Face of America: Gettysburg
Participating athletes will pedal from the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia north through Maryland to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. The ride honors our military — veterans and active duty, both disabled and able-bodied — and celebrates the American Spirit.
Cyclists travel 110 miles in two days, with an overnight stay in Frederick, Maryland. The route is fully-supported with manned rest stops every ten to 12 miles, SAG wagons, skilled ride marshals, a moto team and mechanical support.
Face of America provides athletes the opportunity to welcome adaptive and able-bodied servicemen and women as teammates and to show them how much we appreciate their service and dedication to the country.
About World T.E.A.M.
Since our very first inclusive sports program in 1987, World T.E.A.M. creates challenging outdoor athletic programs that bring together adaptive and able-bodied persons of all backgrounds. We empower lives through sports as diverse as cycling, mountain climbing, white water rafting, sea kayaking and more.
Participant fundraising and donations, grants and business sponsorship support provide funding for our organization and our programs. Our corporate Financial Documents page offers detailed financial information about our organization, including IRS Form 990s and past annual reviews.
In 2020, approximately 93 percent of all incoming financial support was applied directly to cover the costs of our programs and our participating athletes. Face of America Gettysburg is our primary fundraising program for the year, helping support other inclusive programs from New York to Colorado.
Chartered as a national 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization in 1993, World T.E.A.M. is headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts with financial offices in Holbrook, New York.
