"Bike for Change is a most inspirational, heartwarming mission for kids. It brings change to children’s lives as they reach outside of themselves, their church and community to help others. Their enthusiasm and commitment becomes a passion for all involved."

Travis Conquers Personal Pain
*Unwanted and unloved* – this is exactly how Travis felt. He spent his childhood believing his life was inconsequential to his parents. Instead of embracing their son, his mom and dad spent more time embracing their addictions. Cameron Boys Camp, BCH's residential wilderness program, has helped Travis find much-needed healing.

Bike for Change is a fun and dynamic way for children to help "change" the lives of North Carolina children in need. By pedaling bicycles, children raise support and awareness of the boys and girls living at Baptist Children's Homes of North Carolina.
Baptist Children's Homes is a non profit organization that provides residential care to abused, abandoned, and neglected children. BCH is frequently referred to as "North Carolina's largest family" as it meets the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of hundreds of children across the state each year.
Bike for Change allows children to reach out and help BCH residents by raising funds and awareness of the needs through a biking event. Bike for Change is a perfect opportunity for schools, churches, and other children's groups looking for a meaningful service project.
Your donations are greatly appreciated and additional groups are encouraged to inquire about participation in Bike for Change.
All proceeds of Bike for Change go to support Baptist Children's Homes of North Carolina. Baptist Children's Homes is a 501(c)(3) organization. Baptist Children's Homes is accredited by the Council on Accreditation for Children and Family Services, Inc.
