The Paul Anderson Youth Home is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping young men facing serious trouble or incarceration. With your help, we can make a lasting impact on the lives of these young people!

We are holding the 18th Annual Paul Anderson Bike Ride on July 8–14, 2023.

Expanded from five to seven days, five young men from the Home are set to cover more than 520 miles on an ambitious route that begins at the PAYH campus in Vidalia, Ga.

For nearly two decades, the Paul Anderson Bike Ride has commemorated a foundational moment in the history of the Paul Anderson Youth Home. At its founding in 1961, the late and great former Olympic gold-medal winner, Paul Anderson, decided to ride a bicycle from Vidalia, Ga., 1,200 miles to Omaha, Ne. His motivation then was the same as the five young men share today: to raise funds and awareness of the mission to give troubled young men a second chance through Christ. More than 60 years later, PAYH celebrates more than 1,400 lives changed through a process of recovery, restoration, and redemption.

These boys honor God through their transformation and achievement. Additionally, riders are sponsored by donors to raise funds for the youth home.

And that’s where YOU can help!

This is a great opportunity to come together with other members of the community and make a difference in the lives of those in need.  All donations are greatly appreciated and will go towards providing resources for youth in our area.

We invite you to be part of this positive change today! 

Your contribution will ensure that these children have access to essential programs and services that they need to reach their full potential. Thank you for your generosity- we could not do this without you!
