Hugs from Heaven Brenda Potter Memorial Ride & Walk was created to shine the light of Jesus, the very same light Brenda shared everyday through her love.

Brenda was an extremely passionate person who cared deeply about her family and friends, kids, dogs, loving others through incredible hugs, bicycling, gymnastics and Jesus. Brenda passed away on Sept 24, 2021 due to complications from a brain aneurysm. Even though she is no longer physically with us, she was able to give the gift of life to many people through organ donation.

All proceeds from this event are used to purchase bikes, helmets and devotionals underprivileged children in the Fargo-Moorhead & surrounding areas, this is done in Brenda's memory to continue to shine Brenda's light and love of Jesus. We thank all of you for your support and are proud to say we have gifted 17 bikes, helmets & devotional to date!!
