What services are provided by Ride to Riverstone Bike Rides Initiative?
There are a number of essential services that are provided by Ride to Riverstone Bike Rides. All of these services are all aimed at helping to improve the quality of life of people living within the various communities. The services provided include;
The provision of financial assistance to research-conducting institutions
This involves the provision of essential funds to the Australian Lions Childhood Cancer Research Foundation. This Foundation is known for the various researches that it has been conducting into childhood cancer in order to come out with a treatment method that will have a very positive and lasting effect on those children suffering from cancer. This is why the Ride to Riverstone Bike Rides provides financial assistance to the Foundation as it aims to help find solutions to the number of children who are always being affected by cancer.
The provision of exciting fun-filled biking trips
Even though the bike rides are always organised to help raise funds for the undertaking of research into childhood cancers, it is equally a platform that is used to provide each and every participant the chance to;
- Exercise
- Socialise
- Have fun
- Have a better real life experience of the route to Riverstone
These are things that most people have to pay huge amounts of money for in order to even get a trip to such a place and with regards to socialising and making friends, the riders are put into groups and through the interactions that the group members will have, friendships are formed.
These two main services are what the Ride to Riverstone Bike Rides provides for both the participants and those children who are suffering from childhood cancer.
