2018 Ride for Refuge

RIDE for HART!
Saturday, Sept 29


About the RIDE
Ride for Refuge is a bicycling fundraiser that takes place in several major centres across Alberta and Canada. Individuals, community groups and families are encouraged to sign up, grab a bike and raise pledges to assist a charity of their choice.

Purpose: Medical care for kids
HART’s objective this year is to raise money for a Children’s Medical fund – to address the health care needs of children living in poverty. With YOUR help we can build a brighter future for children faced with serious health challenges brought on by poverty and injustice.
