Cycle for Empowerment 2025 – Riding for Autism Awareness & Inclusion

What if every pedal stroke could change a life? What if cycling from Nairobi to Mombasa could help build a brighter future for children with autism?

This is the driving force behind Cycle for Empowerment 2025, a 10-day cycling event organized by ORAA Autism and Youth Empowerment Centre to raise Ksh. 50 million for the construction of a state-of-the-art Autism and Youth Complex.

Starting on May 25, 2025, this ride is more than just a physical challenge - it's a movement for autism awareness, inclusion, and empowerment.

Why Are We Cycling?

In Kenya, over 2.2 million people live with autism, yet many lack access to therapy, education, and opportunities to thrive. The stigma, limited resources, and exclusion they face make daily life a struggle.

Cycle for Empowerment 2025 is a call to action.

We are cycling to:

  • Raise autism awareness and break down stigma.
  • Raise Ksh. 50 million to build a dedicated Autism and Youth complex.
  • Empower individuals with autism by providing them with specialized therapy, education, and employment opportunities.

Event Details

  • Date: May 25, 2025 - June 4, 2025
  • Route: Nairobi - Mackakos - Makueni - Voi - Mombasa
  • Goal: Raise Ksh. 50 million for autism inclusion.

The event consists of two cycling tiers:

2. Tier Two - The Corporate & Individual Ride
