Smash HIV/AIDS Stigma & Ride with Simon 2026!!!
Super excited to be returning as a rider to the Friends for Life Bike Rally!!! It will be my 19th year with this incredible, life-enabling event supporting folks with HIV/AIDS!
Since finding the strength to achieve the seemingly insurmountable challenge of riding a bicycle to Montreal, I've been captured by the inspiration & resilience of members of the family of HIV. This year, I once again have the goal of raising $6,500!
Speaking with CBC News, as they reported at our 2016 departure ceremony, you can learn more about the Bike Rally by visiting: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/pwa-bike-rally-1.3693248
Here are also a few ways you can get involved:
- Donate to my page to help me reach my fundraising goal
- Join the Friends for Life Bike Rally and create your own fundraising page!
I hope you'll do both! Join me during the Friends for Life Bike Rally and help support my fundraising efforts with a donation.
The funds go towards helping people living with HIV/AIDS. People who need food, wellness care, peer support or just to be in a place that is welcoming & safe for them.
Your donation makes a real difference…
$40 provides 10 community members with transportation to medical appointments
$60 funds a peer-led support group for people living with HIV
$100 supports a community member to access medication
$200 ensures one family has groceries for a week
…Let’s do this! This cause is important to me, and I thank you for joining me in supporting it!
