Ride For Dad- Motorcycle Charity
May 27, 2012 9:00am to June 23, 2012 5:00pm
The mission of the Ride For Dad is to raise funds to save men’s lives by supporting prostate cancer research and raising public awareness of the disease.
The Motorcycle Ride for Dad began in Ottawa in 2000 as a single city event to raise money for prostate cancer research and awareness. Two volunteers and 80 riders were involved in that first event raising almost $20,000 for prostate cancer research.
Since then, the Ride has expanded to 30 cities across Canada with events in every province and territory and has donated more than $9 million to its cause. Three hundred dedicated volunteers now serve on Executive Committees along with several thousand short-term volunteers making the Motorcycle Ride For Dad Canada's largest annual motorcycle event!
You can donate now at : http://www.motorcycleridefordad.org/ for the 2012 ride.
