#PlumeStrong Cycling Challenge 2022
We serve our global community through our social impact balance sheet—the #PlumeStrong initiative. In the spirit of supporting two of the five pillars of #PlumeStrong—Education & Equality and Health & Wellness—we'd be honored by your participation in this year’s fundraiser, the #PlumeStrong Cycling Challenge 2022 (#PSCC22).
This five-day, 650 km ride—with 11,250 meters of elevation gain through some of Switzerland’s and Italy’s most beautiful mountain passes—will help our chosen charity Street Child, provide access to safe education programs for refugee children in Ukraine and Moldova.
The Ride
This year’s course will be a tour through Switzerland and Italy across beautiful mountain passes with a distance of 650 km and 11,250 meters of climbing. View the course details for each stage:
• Stage 1 - OpenSync: Zurich to Lenzerheide
• Stage 2 - WorkPass: Lenzerheide to Lugano
• Stage 3 - Uprise: Lugano to Munster
• Stage 4 - Flex: Munster to Interlaken
• Stage 5 - HomePass: Interlaken to Zurich
100% of the contributions raised through the #PlumeStrong Cycling Challenge 2022 will be donated through our chosen charity Street Child. Here’s how we’re helping:
Plume will be the founding partner of Inclusive Learning Hubs in Moldova. Inclusive Learning Hubs will provide safe spaces for Ukrainian refugee children and Moldovan children to learn, play, build friendships, and have a sense of normalcy despite the challenging circumstances of war. An estimated 88,000 Ukrainian refugees are currently in Moldova, meaning thousands of children will not be able to return to school in person this September. Thanks to #PSCC22, Street Child will be able to run a six-month pilot program to address the issue.
Plume will also become Street Child’s first technology partner in Ukraine. We have committed to equip children’s Inclusive Learning Hubs in Ukraine with technology resources, including internet subscriptions, routers, and devices. This support will extend to Moldova once the new Inclusive Learning Hubs have been established.

Whether you’re riding in this year’s challenge or cheering on from afar, Plume is inviting you to participate further via pledges for each kilometer ridden.
