Organiser's description

Ride 2 End Suicide is an annual bicycle ride fundraiser to raise money for suicide awareness, prevention, education and counseling.

This Ride brings together survivors of suicide, their families, friends, supporters and local biking enthusiasts. The Ride is an opportunity to move for something that matters whether thats for health, recovery, or in memory of a loved one with the goal to raise money for life saving suicide prevention programs.

MAY IS MENTAL HEALTH MONTH, so changing the date to this month will support the focus on improving and maintaining mental well-being.

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO SUPPORTED THE 2023 RIDE 2 END SUICIDE!

With your help, the 2023 RIDE 2 END SUICIDE was the second highest fundraising year in its history! The RIDE has raised close to $250,000 since it was founded in 2016. All of these funds have been donated to suicide prevention, crisis intervention and mental health counseling programs. We should all be proud of the collaborative effort to boldly face and fight against these unnecessary losses.

COMMON GROUND HAS TAKEN THE TORCH FROM TERRI JOZEFIAK AND IS NOW MANAGING THE RIDE 2 END SUICIDE AS AN IN-HOUSE FUNDRAISER. We are very pleased with this transition and can't thank Terri enough for her dedication and generosity. We are thrilled to have her continued support.

"Lou and I will continue to be involved in this annual event. Our hearts are filled with comfort knowing that Maries legacy of helping others find their smiles will go on, and that her last impact on the world has been a positive one" - Terri Jozefiak, Ride 2 End Suicide Founder & former Director
