Fundraising - It's How We Give
Raising pledges is the key to helping those in need and is critical to the event. Fundraising is how we continue the patient assistance giving program. We ask that each participant goal themselves to raise $500. This is the amount Pink Ribbon Riders gives to one patient in need.
And you can raise pledges to cover your sign up! Ask 10 friends for $10.00 or turn in your recycle cans…every penny adds up. Goal yourself for $500 and help one patient.
Here is how simple it can be:
- Online Fundraising: Once you sign up our program offers a fundraising page you create and can share via social media and email
