Our attempt at a blog may just turn out to be a sounding board for the numerous events and ideas that we are planning as an organization. As this is our first blog entry I think it most appropriate to convey the gratitude of the teamgive organization to those who are constantly finding ways to help us grow. As an organization we are excited to introduce new opportunities by which we can generate awareness and share opportunities to successfully ‘give’ back to our community. Thank you for your generosity and for the numerous ways in which you are making a difference in the lives of many. While the situations we highlight may be considered rare, there are simply too many children without a common voice. Thank you for helping us make that voice possible.

About teamgive

teamgive is an organization of successful professionals with a shared passion for cycling and sports, for service to their community, and for excellence in all we do.  teamgive combines its members’ active lifestyles, professional abilities and backgrounds with a desire to support research for treatment and cures of rare neurological diseases.  We do this through participation, sponsorship, and organization of community and corporate-sponsored charitable cycling and similar athletic events.

teamgive is committed to enhancing the lives of others through creating opportunities for community and charitable involvement while participating in the exciting sport of cycling and related athletic events.

Increase awareness of, and raise funds for, research, treatment, and support of those suffering neurological disease, including Metachromatic Leukodystrophy (MLD) and similar debilitating diseases.

Participate in, support, and execute highly visible community sporting events that promote and inspire personal participation and corporate citizenship.

Provide opportunities for cycling enthusiasts, amateur athletes, and any individual to enjoy their chosen sports while contributing to meaningful charitable causes.

teamgive is excited to work closely with the foundation Brains for Brain.  Watch for features regarding the important advances in research as we partner to support real cures.  Learn more at Brains4Brain

teamgive’s approach to participation and event execution is built around a culture of professionalism and excellence in every aspect of its operations.  It starts with our directors and advisors, and extends to every teamgive member.

teamgive Membership

We seek individuals who are successful in their chosen fields, and ask them to do more than just participate in team events.  teamgive members proactively contribute their time, talents, skills, and effort to serve others directly and through teamgive operations.

teamgive participates in, sponsors, and organizes cycling and sports events.  We do this in a more highly visible, organized, professional manner than typically found at such venues.

teamgive’s operating model assures that 100 percent of funds raised and cash donations to flow directly to the medical research we support.  teamgive administrative costs are covered by the endowment of a primary operating sponsor, freeing all other donations to support fundraising activities and direct donations with no overhead costs.  All donations of whatever type are of course tax deductible.

When teamgive participates, we brings our members in full gear, its support crew, and its vehicles.  All feature teamgive colors, logos, and sponsor images.  teamgive support vehicles are wrapped with teamgive graphics to make the vehicles easy to spot for team members, and to provide recognition for teamgive donors and charities.

In sponsoring events, teamgive provides a range of logistical support, volunteers, and donated materials, as well as awards and prizes.  In events where teamgive is a sponsor, teamgive will usually field a team of its members to participate in the event as well. teamgive donors and charities benefit from teamgive visibility and organized contributions to the success of the selected event.

When teamgive organizes an event we take responsibility for planning, logistics, and execution.  As with participant and sponsored events, teamgive donors and charities will be highly visible.  At teamgive organized events, sponsors and members will have increased opportunities for volunteer work and contributions.
