More than 300 riders put their creativity and bikes to work from August 1-15, 2021 by participating in the chart-your-own-course, virtual version of this integral, annual fundraiser.
Through a summer like no other, even in the midst of holidays, beach days, long-anticipated road trips and travel, this incredible community still showed up. You ‘Everested’, you climbed, you cruised (some of you crashed), but no matter how you showed your support, you found a way to make it your own and celebrate YANA any way that you could.
To the riders, the donors, the sponsors; to the giant-hearted YANA supporters from across the Comox Valley and beyond, to say ‘thank you’ is hardly enough for the $77,000 that, together, we raised for families in our community. You truly showed every YANA child that even through the darkest of days, they are not alone.
Plans are already underway for a hybrid event in 2022! Mark your calendars now to ride for YANA between August 1-21st and join other riders and supporters for the Party in the Park on August 21.
A huge YANA thank you to Lois Thorlaciius on behalf of Live to Ride, who presented YANA with a grant-donation facilitated by the Strategic Charitable Giving Foundation. These funds will go directly back into the programs YANA offers to Comox Valley families, made possible by gifts like yours!
No bowls were filled with chili this year, but we are enormously grateful to Potter’s Place for their in-lieu-of donation made to YANA. Here’s to full bowls and warm bellies for next year’s fundraiser!
Julene M. found herself with 2 PS5 gaming systems and decided to sell one on Comox Valley 24hr bidding and donate the proceeds received over the purchase price to YANA. Thank you for supporting YANA!
