Kevin for Goodworks

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!

My coach, friend, and mentor, Kevin St. Clair, was tragically killed while riding his bicycle home last November. Kevin was not just a national team rower but also an elite masters cyclist. For nearly 40 years, since I was 13, Kevin and the entire St. Clair family have profoundly influenced my life, second only to my own family.

This July, I will be riding in the 37th Annual Ben to the Shore as part of Team Kevin St. Clair, which includes his former athletes and friends. We ride to honor Kevin's memory and his immense contributions to our lives. Kevin inspired everyone he met—from the students he taught to the athletes he trained to compete.

I owe a debt to Kevin that can never be repaid, but I strive daily to live the lessons he imparted to me as a father, husband, coach, and educator. Even with only a week of training and just a month until the ride, his teachings on tenacity and work ethic push me to train with the same dedication he embodied. I can still hear his unique coaching phrases, which, though cryptic at times, always drove us to excel.

We ride to support the Families Behind the Badge Children's Foundation, a 501(c)3 non-profit that Kevin and his family cherished. Your participation and support are most welcome and encouraged. Join us in celebrating Kevin's legacy!

I am excited to participate in the 37th Annual The Ben to the Shore, which supports the Families Behind the Badge Children's Foundation!  

The Families Behind the Badge Children’s Foundation (FBBCF) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit committed to improving the lives of children in the Greater Philadelphia and South Jersey area. We achieve this by providing necessary financial relief for the families of fallen or critically injured first responders (police officers, firefighters, EMTs) and cultivating positive relationships and interactions between police officers and the children in the communities they serve.
