PATH works with state, county and local leaders to create infrastructure for bikeways, sidewalks and pathways for safer travel. The group also goes out to elementary schools and teaches children how to ride a bike.

HANO recognized the nonprofit as it has shown a commitment to working collaboratively with other organizations — nonprofit, for profit or government — to scale, leverage synergies and efficiencies and create greater impact in the communities it serves.

HANOCON is the organization’s largest annual gathering that brings together nonprofit professionals–as well as sector allies, supporters, and advocates–to network, learn, share ideas, collaborate and partner.
