Ride for Relief

Government Center (map)

Selected By: Collin

Ride to raise supplies for Haiti. The ride will start in Government Center and go through Little Haiti.

We will be riding through Little Haiti and going to Haitian markets and picking up non-perishable goods. Water, Canned food, medical supplies of your choice. We will be riding to Fire Station #9 and delivering it to the Miami Fire Department who will be bringing everything to a single drop off point.

We are not taking cash donations, if you want to donate cash go to Red Cross or Doctors Without Borders

    This is a great idea. Can I bring the UWEllness cycling girls with me? Do we need a van to take supplies?

    It would be nice to find a local, Miami-based NGO that could take the donations from this local effort.

    This was a fantastic experience. The weather surprised us by turning beautiful, and we managed to gather plenty of supplies to send to Haiti.

    Going out as a group to do some good as ugly as the day was at the start and and to be rewarded with sunshine at the end was the best.

    Great Ride Out guys. We weathered the storm and did something good for the soul. May good Karma shine on all.

    Had a couple of minutes of footage from the Haiti "Ride for Relief" on Jan. 17th, so I made a little video. Enjoy! :)
