Nicky's 2017 NOLA to Angola Bike Ride

Nola to Angola is an annual three-day, 170-mile bicycle ride fundraiser. We ride from Orleans Parish Prison in New Orleans to Angola, the Louisiana State Penitentiary. Each rider raises money by soliciting sponsorships from family and friends. The funds raised support the Cornerstone Builders Bus Project, which sends free buses every month for family members to visit their incarcerated loved ones. For many, the Cornerstone buses are the only way they can make these important visits.

The ride has grown from about a dozen riders to 50-60 and continues to expand each year, raising $25,000 – $30,000 for Cornerstone annually. This has enabled Cornerstone to send a full schedule of buses, to develop long-term sustainability, and to expand their services to Shreveport.

Thanks so much for supporting the NTA ride and my fundraising!   Each dollar you give is directly helping someone who is incarcerated keep in touch with their family members and friends.
