The Pedal with Pete Foundation is a non-profit organization focused on advancing cerebral palsy (CP) research through community fundraising events such as bike rides and walks. Founded by Pete Zeidner in Kent, Ohio, the foundation operates as a volunteer-driven network that organizes activities to support research centers across the United States and internationally, including Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus and Case Western University in collaboration with the Cleveland Clinic. Its mission centers on funding research aimed at improving prevention, treatment, and cures for CP, with a vision of reducing preventable cases and enabling individuals affected by CP to reach their fullest potential. The foundation is based in Worthington, Ohio, and engages volunteers and partners to raise funds and identify promising research opportunities in collaboration with the American Academy of Cerebral Palsy and Developmental Medicine (AACPDM). A notable development is the collaboration with AACPDM to assess and select grant requests, expanding the reach and impact of its funding initiatives.
