Biking for Babies is a nonprofit organization based in Des Moines, Iowa, that uses cycling as a means of personal growth and service. The program targets young adults seeking a challenge and spiritual development, offering a pathway to transformation through faith-centered experiences. The National Ride program is described as more than a single bicycle event; it’s intended to guide participants toward virtue, encourage sacrifice for women and families in crisis pregnancies, and cultivate missionary discipleship of Jesus Christ. The organization aims to move participants from passive engagement with the world to active, dignified service of life, leveraging their talents for others. As part of the broader nonprofit sector focused on life and families, it partners with pregnancy resources and supports individuals through guided programs. In May 2025, Biking for Babies earned the Platinum Seal of Transparency from Candid, reflecting its commitment to openness about activities and impact. A prior collaboration noted in 2021 involved the St. Joseph Pregnancy Resource Clinic, illustrating engagement with local partners. The group operates with a small staff to advance its mission from Des Moines.
