Obliteride is a fundraising event. Every year, thousands of Obliteriders, from first-time participants to longtime riders, step up for the people they care about: every patient and family facing cancer.
And when you ask for support, others step up, too! Whether they give $10 or $1,000, your friends, family, colleagues, and community are ready to help stop the suffering cancer causes. All you have to do is ask.
Many Obliteriders set big goals — but only your fundraising commitment is required. (Check our incentives and promotions for extra motivation.)

Not sure how to kick things off? No problem. Start with the tips below, develop your own plan, and see how far your heart and dedication can take you!
You’re giving people the chance to take action against cancer by supporting scientific research that saves lives. That’s something to feel great about — for you and your donors.
It can be powerful to share why you Obliteride. Your personal story is authentic, inspiring — and your most effective fundraising tool.
Sell tickets to an event, raffle a prize, or make and sell a T-shirt. People love a party and give more when they see your dedication.
Surprise: Both are great tools for fundraising. Pictures, challenges, and personal messages get people invested (and donating).
Many employers will gladly match donors’ gifts dollar for dollar — doubling their contributions and boosting your goals. Visit our Matching Gifts page to learn more.
For $10, donors get a dedicated mile. $50 chooses your workout. And $200 puts their name on your jersey. (Obliteriders say this approach is very effective.)
Asking will be 10 times more meaningful — and easier — if you’re clear why you’re asking.
Have fun, make friends, and help cure cancer faster. See you Saturday, August 8.
