We created the Rescue Rider program to recruit, educate and organize bikers in support
of each other, our communities and our nation. We do this by helping provide bikers with
the tools & training needed to provide emergency assistance in times of need. We accomplish
our mission by building relationships with professional emergency response organizations
About now you may be asking yourself, what can I do as a biker to help with these events?
As bikers, we can take advantage of our increased mobility via two wheels to deliver medical
professionals, supplies and aid into areas that may have limited access due to wide spread destruction from disasters.
As bikers we are also accustomed to the dangers we as motorcyclists face while riding.
For this reason we have started a "Ride for a Reason®" program which allows our bikers to
serve as volunteers at area events and poker runs. Our volunteers participate at area events
just as you normally would but now you have the training & tools to provide aid when
encountering an accident which has become all too common these days.
The Rescue Riders are a Non-Profit 501c3 corporation which was started in 2005. Currently
we have over 2000 volunteers located in 26 states and thanks to the dedication of our volunteer ranks continue to grow.
Our Mission Statement:
Rescue Riders NFP is a 501(c)3 not for profit charitable organization made up of trained volunteer first responders. Acting strictly under applicable Good Samaritan laws, we are able to provide basic life sustaining actions, accident scene control, EMS contact and assistance for any person at any time that has suffered a traumatic injury or sudden onset of illness. We primarily act as support for motorcycle based charity events under our Ride for a ReasonĀ® program, but utilizing learned and practiced skills, our equipped volunteers are always ready to properly react to an emergency medical situation that may be presented to them. We do this because swift actions during the "Golden Hour" following a traumatic injury, specifically within the time frame between incident and EMS arrival, does make a difference between life and death.
