Hospice Bike Tour 2025 10th edition – START
Today, Hospices of Hope Moldova kicked off the 10th edition of the charity sports event Hospice Bike Tour 2025. For 10 years, we’ve been turning kilometers into hope. For 10 years, we’ve been riding for those who no longer can.
This anniversary edition, we embarked on a journey of approximately 600 km, from Chișinău to Cluj-Napoca, with the mission of supporting people who suffer from incurable illnesses and need support in their daily struggle.
From the headquarters of OTP Bank in Chișinău, the main partner of the event, 20 amateur but brave cyclists set off. The goal for the first day: 150 km to Iași.
Despite the unstable weather and hilly roads, nothing stopped our cyclists from moving forward. Their determination to help those in need was stronger than any obstacle.
Besides the physical challenge of covering such a distance in a short time, each participant is also committed to raise 500 EUR for the patients with incurable illnesses from various regions of the Republic of Moldova.
You too can support this generous cause through a donation, accessing:

#HospiceBikeTour2025: primul antrenament de pregătire a fost desfășurat cu succes
Numărătoarea inversă a început! Duminică, 18 mai, am dat startul primului antrenament pe biciclete dedicat celei de-a 10-a ediții a #HospiceBikeTour2025 – un eveniment de suflet, care ne adună an de an pentru o cauză care contează.
De această dată, 16 pasionați ai ciclismului au parcurs un traseu de aproximativ 80 km, din Chișinău până la Căpriana și înapoi. Nu a fost doar un antrenament fizic, ci și o reconectare cu scopul care ne unește: pregătirea pentru cea mai importantă provocare caritabilă a anului.
În perioada 14-18 iunie 2025, echipa noastră de cicliști va parcurge în jur de 600 km, în doar 4 zile, spre Cluj-Napoca, România. Fiecare dintre participanți, pe lângă provocarea de a parcurge o astfel de distanță semnificativă, este provocat să colecteze și 500 EUR - o contribuție ce va oferi posibilitatea beneficiarilor Hospices of Hope Moldova să-și trăiască viața cu demnitate și fără durere, până la ultima clipă.
Le mulțumim din suflet celor care au venit la antrenament, pentru energia, implicarea și devotamentul lor. Ceea ce faceți nu este doar despre kilometri parcurși – este despre oameni, despre speranță și despre o viață trăită cu demnitate până la capăt.
Dacă vrei și tu să devii parte din acest efort colectiv și să îți testezi limitele într-o aventură cu sens, înscrierile sunt deschise până pe 6 iunie 2025. Găsești formularul de participare pe pagina noastră principală www.hospicesofhope.md – în colțul din dreapta.
