Team “We Ride For D&I” competed in a relay race by riding child-size tricycles on a certified racetrack. While we did not win the race, we exceeded our $500 fundraising goal!

This year’s theme was inspired by the Bad Boys movie franchise: We ride together. We die together. D&I for life.

Special thank you to our amazing team members, which consisted of colleagues from the Office of Diversity and Inclusion and the Asian Network at Yale (Marinda Monfilston, Devon Riley, Ben Walter, Jessica Barajas, Sunil Koundal, and Violeta Ware); our donors, supporters, and fans! And a special thank you to Devon for creating this year’s team t-shirts!
