Best Buddies Challenge to Support Mals Pals

I am participating in the Best Buddies Challenge, a 100-mile bike ride from Boston to Hyannisport, to support Mal's Pals Foundation.

Mal’s Pals Foundation was founded in 2017 after a little Boston girl was diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder called, Rubinstein Taybi Syndrome, or RTS. Her parents and their friends decided to enter a bike race to raise awareness for rare diseases like Mallory’s. The rest is history. Since 2017, Mal’s Pals Foundation has grown from a team of 5 riders in the Best Buddies Challenge, to a support network involving hundreds of people, local businesses, partners and supporters.

Mal’s Pals Foundation strives to not only raise awareness about rare disease, but to encourage inclusion. Mal’s Pals Foundation believes that it is in a most inclusive world, that we all become better people. It is not only beneficial to those with unique abilities, but it is of priceless value for anyone to learn and grow in an environment that is both inclusive and accommodating of all people.
