🚴‍♀️ Ride for a Great Cause Around Beautiful Cayuga Lake! 🚴‍♂️

Do you love to ride? Then the 2026 Finger Lakes Ride for Life is the perfect opportunity to enjoy the scenic views around Cayuga Lake while raising funds for an incredible cause!

Funds raised through the ride go directly back to Southern Tier AIDS Program (STAP) to help fill critical funding gaps for people living with HIV/AIDS, individuals living with two or more chronic illnesses, LGBTQ+ youth at Identity Youth Center, and participants in our Syringe Exchange Program.

And there’s more! Every registered rider receives a personal fundraising page and tools to help reach their fundraising goal—including the ability to create fundraising events, send thank-you texts to donors, host livestream fundraisers, and more.

💙 Your support makes a real difference. At Identity Youth Center, these funds help provide positive experiences and activities for our youth, including Rumble Ponies games, Dave & Buster’s outings, picnics in the park, and more!

🚴 Register. Ride. Fundraise. Make an impact.

🎉 Identity is excited to share that The New York State LGBT Health & Human Services Network (“The Network”), has expanded! Identity is a proud member of The Network, a coalition of over 60 LGBTQ+ organizations located across New York State. While services and support for LGBTQIA+ folks across the country are shrinking and being defunded, we are expanding our reach and shared capacity. Providers across the state will be more interconnected, ensuring high-quality care is available for the LGBTQIA+ communities we serve across the state.
