Who will benefit?

We selected Muscular Dystrophy Canada as the beneficiary for Ride For Doug.  This is because MDC works directly with the people who need it the most.  The people you are raising money for are the neuromuscular patients in the Greater Vancouver Area.   Doug's friends.  These are real people.  Real people with hopes and dreams.  Real people with real challenges.  Most of what is contributed directly benefits those who are suffering the most through education, quality of life assistance, and social interactions not otherwise possible.  Some money goes to research for a cure.  Let's make muscles move.
