Cycling Forward at CycleBar

December 7, 2025 · By Anne Lee

On December 7, 2025, the Vanta Forward Foundation hosted its first fundraiser at CycleBar in Closter, New Jersey, bringing together community members for a powerful charity ride in support of digital equity. Over 41 riders cycled in solidarity toward closing the global digital divide.

Powered by a partnership with Elavi, participants pedaled for nearly two hours, transforming movement into impact. Every mile ridden contributed to Vanta Forward Foundation’s efforts to provide students around the world with access to essential digital devices and emerging technology and AI learning opportunities. 

The event embodied Vanta Forward Foundation’s belief that as technology continues to shape our world, progress must be inclusive. For many underserved students, access to basic digital tools remains limited, creating barriers to learning and growth. By spearheading initiatives that expand both access and education, Vanta works to address both the digital divide and data gap surrounding children’s access to technology.

The CycleBar charity ride marked an important milestone for Vanta Forward Foundation, demonstrating the power of collective action and community-driven change. One ride at a time, supporters helped move Vanta closer to its vision of a world where every student has the opportunity to learn, grow, and engage with the technology that defines our future. 

Moving into 2026, Vanta will continue to hold engaging and impactful activities to increase awareness of their mission.

Let’s Move Forward—Together.
