A WORLD
WITHOUT CANCER
Every mile closer to cures.
Padres Pedal the Cause is Curebound’s largest signature event, bringing together thousands of participants each year to raise money for collaborative cancer research. Hosted in partnership with the Padres, "Pedal" is San Diego’s most impactful fundraising experience with over $18 million raised to date to fund 80+ innovative research grants in all types of cancer.
You will be inspired by the energy and passion of the Pedal community made up of survivors, families & friends, doctors, scientists, children and volunteers – all of whom are determined to see cures in our lifetime.
100% of every dollar raised funds life-saving cancer research.
