The 5th Annual Rally for RAACE - charity motorcycle ride and family fun day event will be held on Sunday, August 8, 2010 to benefit The RAACE Foundation. All motorcycles are welcome!
The RAACE Foundation (Race Against Abuse of Children Everywhere), is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to fighting the epidemic of child sexual abuse through public awareness campaigns and the distribution of educational materials. There are an estimated 39 million survivors of child sexual abuse that exist in America today. Statistics indicate that 1 in 3 girls and 1 in 7 boys are sexually abused before the age of 18. Only when the problem of Child Sexual Abuse is faced openly can we hope to protect our children. It takes courage, determination and the efforts of many to make a difference, but we can, and must do it!
We encourage you to take part in our 5th Annual Rally for RAACE. Last year's event boasted almost 400 riders taking part in the 56 mile – feet-up, police escorted RALLY and more than 1200 people at the Family Fun Day at Chesapeake Harley-Davidson which showed that motorcycle enthusiasts can come together to make a true and heartfelt difference in the world. The RAACE Foundation would be truly blessed to see this year's special 5th Anniversary ride triple the amount of participants.
Whether you ride or not, be sure to bring your families, make it a fun day, see the bikes, and join in the activities. Your participation will go a long way in our efforts to fight the tragic epidemic of child sexual abuse.
We have many pre-registration activities planned for this summer – announcements coming soon! If you need further information about The RAACE Foundation, the 5th Annual Rally for RAACE, vendor or sponsor opportunities, please give us a call at 1-800-755-KIDS or drop us a line at rally@raace.org.
Wishing You Many Safe Journeys,
The RAACE Foundation
