We are raising money to support innovative cardiac research for kids at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP). With your help, we can better understand the causes of pediatric heart disease, develop new treatments, improve long-term outcomes and offer new hope to families who need it most.

Join the movement!

Why We Ride

Little hearts need us: 1 in every 120 babies born in the United States are diagnosed with congenital heart disease.
Together, we’ll create a breakthrough for every child: "The Philly-Spin-In not only inspires the Cardiac Center team to continue our pursuit of clinical excellence, but the funding the event generates also allows us to push new boundaries of research and patient care initiatives that help define the future of pediatric heart care." – Dr. Jonathan Chen

We Ride For Lucy and all the amazing heart warriors!

Our daughter Lucy was born in April 2023 with 2 heart defects. She was immediately rushed to CHOP and had her first open heart surgery when she was only 3 days old. The CHOP team was amazing and we are so thankful for all the doctors and nurses that took care of her while she was there! She was back at CHOP for gastrostomy tube (G-tube) surgery in October 2023 after 6 months with a Nasogastric tube (NG tube). Her second open heart surgery was March 2024 just before her first birthday. She is doing so well and we are so grateful for CHOP and their cardiac care team for taking such great care of Lucy. Please consider donating to this wonderful cause.

We had such a great time at the Philly Spin-In last year and felt so much love and support from our friends and family. The event raised over $1 million in 2024, with our team contributing over $20,000. To kickstart our fundraising efforts for the 2025 Spin-In, we are hosting a formal event on November 23, 2024 at the Quarterdeck at Seastreak in Highlands, NJ. We will have live entertainment, light bites and drinks!

We hope you can join us for a great night!!!
