MDA RIDE FOR LIFE

Published 03/07/2019 | By Roger Joseph

WHY MDA?

Kids and adults in your community are suffering every day from muscular dystrophy, ALS, and related life-threatening
neuromuscular diseases that weaken their muscles and make simple tasks, like getting dressed, walking, and even breathing
difficult or even impossible. Muscular Dystrophy Association is committed to funding research, accelerating treatments,
providing care, and connecting families with services and support in their own hometowns.

ABOUT RIDE FOR LIFE

In a field 30 years ago, the Eastern Harley-Davidson Dealers Association (EHDDA) decided to do something about the neuromuscular disorders that were claiming the physical strength, independence, and lives of people all over the country and the world. They didn’t know then that the event they created would span 3 decades, host over 50,000 participants and – most importantly – raise over $21 million to fight degenerative muscle diseases.

Over the years, Ride for Life has become the world’s largest Harley-Davidson fundraising event to benefit MDA. Each Ride for Life event brings riders and H.O.G. Chapter members together, partnering them with families and kids living with neuromuscular diseases. The weekend-long celebration is the culmination of a year of fundraising by Harley-Davidson dealerships; it’s a chance for MDA Goodwill Ambassadors to be rock stars and for client families to spend an unforgettable, action-packed weekend with friends and supporters.
