Ride For Wellness, 2022
WELCOME TO THE 2022 RIDE FOR WELLNESS!
Join us for the 8th Annual Excel Rehab & Sports Ride for Wellness benefiting the Excel Foundation. The foundation was formed in 2014 to provide much-needed help and support to the most vulnerable in our communities. This is a FREE EVENT; however, we are accepting DONATIONS that will directly benefit health services for our community’s most vulnerable. So, join us and our amazing sponsors for an exciting day of cycling and fellowship. Thank you in advance for your trust and commitment to wellness in our community!
We welcome donations in support of the Excel Foundation with or without ride participation. Because of your support through the years, we have raised more than $18,000 through sponsorships and participation donations. Your financial support and participation have provided direct benefits to area communities.
