Fundraiser: Ride2Survive – Jun 19-20

On Saturday, June 20, the Ride2Survive team of 120 cyclists and 100 volunteers will leave Kelowna at 3:30 am and return by bike through Surrey at around 10 pm. It’s a very long day of cycling but the results are amazing.
 .
The Ride2Survive is the Canadian Cancer Society’s biggest independent fundraising event in BC, with almost $3.5 million raised in the event’s 11-year history, and almost $500k coming in this year so far. The best part: 100% of all donations go to cancer research, with no money taken out for administrative costs or marketing.
