Help Star Track Change Kids' Lives

Since 2004, when Deirdre Murphy Bader and Delroy Walters founded our zero-barriers program, NYC kids have been able to discover the joys and rewards of bicycle racing regardless of family income, experience or background. Today, nearly 200 children have fun, get fit, make friends and develop their cycling skills each semester at Kissena Velodrome. Every single child benefits from the experience Star Track provides — gaining strength, self-esteem and resilience — and for those who aim to compete, they embark on a journey that has no limits. We have seen it so many times over two decades. This program truly changes lives.

This campaign supports the future of the most unique cycling program in the country. Our aim is to ensure that we are able to introduce new riders to bike racing as our third decade continues to unfold — and that we can continue to change children’s lives in New York City. As on day one, we can only ride because of you.

Please help the program continue to reach new heights this year and beyond — Your kindness and generosity are what keeps New York City's best free youth sports program alive!
