At Peloton, we know we are stronger together. We’re committed to empowering people to be the best versions of themselves through fitness, community, and motivation.

Since day one, community has been the beating heart of Peloton. We’re deeply grateful to our Members for showing up to support people in need during the COVID-19 pandemic.

In March, you came together on the Leaderboard to donate over 3 million meals to food banks and relief organizations in the US, UK, and Germany. In April, you nominated the heroes in your life for The Comeback: Frontline Edition, resulting in Peloton donating 200 additional Bikes to healthcare workers and hospitals. And we know you’re not done yet.

In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, fighting hunger has become even more important. During the Pelothon, we’re coming together to give back and support hunger relief efforts in our global communities. Over four weeks, Peloton will donate a total of $1M to our four non-profit partners:

Since 1983, Food Bank For New York City has provided more than 1.2 billion meals to New Yorkers in need. Food Bank For New York City works to end hunger by organizing food, information and support for community survival, empowerment, and dignity, for over 35 years. As New York City’s largest hunger-relief organization, Food Bank For New York City helps low-income New Yorkers overcome their circumstances and achieve greater independence.

The Trussell Trust is working to end hunger and poverty in the UK. They support a nationwide network of over 1,200 food banks to provide emergency food and support to people locked in poverty. They campaign for change to ultimately end the need for food banks in the UK. Last year, their food banks provided 1.6 million three-day emergency food supplies to people in crisis.

The Tafel is a network of over 900 food banks across Germany. One of the largest volunteer-based organizations in the country, The Tafel supports more than 1.5 million people in need of food throughout the country – nearly one third of them are children and youth.

Daily Bread Food Bank works towards long-term solutions to end hunger and poverty and runs innovative programs to support individuals living on low income and experiencing food insecurity. Daily Bread distributes fresh and shelf-stable food, and fresh-cooked meals to 130 member agencies and 170 food programs across Toronto. Daily Bread also publishes the influential Who's Hungry report - an annual survey measuring trends in food insecurity and poverty in Toronto to educate the public and spark policy change.

To our Members, we thank you for all that you do to strengthen our communities everywhere. Together, we go far.
