We are proud to share that The German tire company Continental is the official sponsor of Bartali Youth in Movement.
Following the events of October 7th and the resilience programs operated by Bartali Youth in Movement for the communities of the western Negev, Continental and its official importer in Israel, DAA Sport & Technology, have decided to support the educational programs of the organization.
The companies will adopt the organization in general and the cycling groups of Kibbutz Nachal Oz in particular, who now live in Kibbutz Mishmar HaEmek since the war broke out.
Continental, based in Hannover, Germany, is considered a pioneer in the world of bike tires and functions as a tire supplier for several leading professional teams worldwide. The collaboration with the company was initiated by Erez Weiss, CEO of DAA. "We would like to try offering some stability to the lives of youth and hope that our collaboration can be a step towards normalcy and hope," says Erez.
Since 2019, Bartali has been operating a network of cycling centers for at-risk youth aged 13-18. Since the beginning of the war, Bartali has been operating two youth groups aged 13-18 in Nachal Oz.The senior cycling group of Nachal Oz is set to depart for a cycling journey at the end of June along with several other Bartali groups. The journey recaptures the path that Gino Bartali himself used to ride, while saving hundreds of Jews in Italy during World War II. The journey is expected to end on June 29th, at the launch of the Tour de France, starting this year in Florence.
Continental is the official sponsor of the Tour de France race and will host Bartali Youth in Movement’s delegation on the first day.
