Keeping the PAce (KTP) is an annual fundraiser benefiting Pattison’s Academy. It is a ride-a-thon taking place on stationary bikes. All proceeds from the event impact our children and allow us to carry out the therapeutic and education programs at Pattison’s Academy.

Keeping the PAce will take place at Pattison’s Academy on Saturday, March 22nd from 10 a.m. to noon. The address is 652A King St, Charleston, SC 29403. Participants should plan to arrive at 9:30 a.m. for registration.

The event is free, but everyone on a team must pay a $25 registration fee per team member and we strongly encourage fundraising to raise $600 per bike to reserve for your team.

No! You are absolutely welcome to fundraise on your own or make a tax-deductible donation to Pattison's Academy in support of our largest fundraising event!

How to reserve your bike is coming soon!

You can ride solo, or have as many riders on your team as you would like! If you have multiple riders who have paid the $25 registration fee, they can take turns riding the stationary bike while cheering each other on. The more the merrier!

Fundraising Tips & Tricks!

• Remember you only need ONE fundraising page per team.

• Have your team members all share the same page to reach the $600 fundraising goal to reserve your team's bike.

• When sharing to social media, emphasize that KTP is Pattison's BIGGEST fundraiser of the year and the one time you will ask for support!

• Ask your friends and families to share your page with their networks to appeal to an even larger audience.

• Little goals make a huge impact! Make a specific ask, for example, "If everyone could give $10, that will help me reach my goal!"

• Repetition is key! Keep asking, you never know who might see your post.

• Change and update your photos regularly to keep content fresh.

• Mention and tag those who have given in your posts to thank them for their support!
