Firstly, we would like to say a massive personal thanks on behalf of the charity for all the money the bikers have raised, combining the Mother’s Day rides alone you will have raised a fantastic £237,000.
You may also like to know that your fundraising activities have funded the 2010 and 2011 box packing initiative, which has always been our stated primary mission. The scheme was so well received by the boy’s and girl’s that the MoD requested that the initiative be extended to encompass Afghanistan and Iraq. This equates to a total of 24,000 parcels of home comfort! Read More »
Many of you have been asking us for a final, full account of the money raised (and spent) on this year’s ride.
Firstly, please accept our deep thanks and gratitude to all of you who turned out to make this such a wonderful event (again!) and for raising funds for our troops and their families. Afghan Heroes will be using your donations to continue our work over the coming year, including sending out comfort boxes to over 10,000 of our troops serving overseas. Once again, a huge thank you to all the biking community, the organisers and to all who gave freely of their time and resources to make this such a fantastic event. Read More »
