Building Together
Our Community & Fundraising Initiatives
Race to The Sun
A scenic yet grueling ride from Hartbeespoort to Sun City. Ambassadors participate to symbolize the endurance and commitment needed to uplift disadvantaged children.
Barberton XCM & Sabie Classic
These iconic mountain biking races through Mpumalanga’s scenic but tough terrain kickstart our calendar. Ambassadors ride to raise early-year funding for school uniforms and hygiene packs.
Cape Town Cycle Tour
Known as the world’s largest timed cycle race, this iconic event is a major platform for fundraising and visibility. Our team rides in branded kits to represent thousands of learners who benefit from our programs.
Our Partners & Sponsors
Thanks to the generosity of our partners, donors, and ambassadors, we’ve touched the lives of many children and families across South Africa. From uniform distributions to food drives and awareness campaigns, our work continues to grow each year.
Changing Children's Lives Through Cycling
Throughout 2025, our passionate team of DressAChild Ambassadors will take part in some of South Africa’s most renowned cycling events — not just to ride, but to raise awareness and funds to support underprivileged learners. Every kilometer they pedal brings us closer to our goal of dressing more children in full school uniforms and supporting their basic educational needs.
