PHILANTHROPIC EFFORTS

Philanthropic Works

From its very humble beginnings the Roadglide.org National Rally Non Profit has always been a charitable organization.  Our goal is to give something back to the community that we visit each year.  The 2025 efforts pushed our totals over one hundred thousand dollars donated to local charities.

To the members of the Road Glide National Rally

It was amazing getting to give to Respite Care, your generosity is truly a gift.

A pretty incredible delivery rolled into Respite Care! This year, the Road Glide National Rally brought riders from across the country to Northern Colorado and chose Respite Care as a beneficiary of their event. Recently, members of the rally stopped by for a very special visit to present us with an incredible $10,000 donation! They also brought along a few of their super cool motorcycles for our kids to see up close! Our kids had so much fun checking out the bikes, meeting the riders, and experiencing a little bit of the rally excitement for themselves. We are so grateful to the entire Road Glide National Rally community for choosing to support Respite Care and the children and families we serve.


Thank you for riding for Respite Care!




2026 RGNR  XVI
The RGNR Board and the 2026 hosts selected Respite Care Inc, to be the recipients of our effort to give back to the communities that we visit each year. 
Respite Care, Inc. is the only facility-based organization in Larimer County offering affordable, specialized, short-term care to families across Northern Colorado who are raising children with developmental disabilities. Our services empower families to function more effectively, reduce stress, and raise their children at home, while ensuring that children with developmental disabilities can enjoy the same kinds of experiences as their neurotypical peers.
Families can schedule care before and after school, overnight, on weekends, during summer and school-out days, or for up to 14 consecutive days when extended breaks are needed. Our licensed Early Childhood Education Program serves infants through preschoolers, promoting social-emotional development and school readiness, while our School-Age Program (ages 5–12) focuses on life skills and social-emotional competence. Our Teen Program (ages 13–18) supports independent and group living skills such as public transportation, meal planning, hygiene, and social development. In addition, enrichment programs like Wilderness Overnight Camp and Summer Day Camp offer inclusive, hands-on experiences such as archery, horseback riding, visits to museums and parks, and a special one-week camp at Hearts & Horses in Loveland—helping children reach their highest potential while enjoying meaningful, fun-filled activities.

The RGNR Board and the 2025 hosts selected five different charities to be the recipients of our effort to give back to the communities that we visit each year. The donation has always been given after the RGNR, but due to circumstances the RGNR Board of Directors made the decision to match the first five thousand dollars donated immediately.
This years effort resulted in over $18,000  donated to assist the communities affected by Hurricane Helene.

2022 RGNR XII
$13,500 donation to Professional Fire Fighters of Wisconsin Charitable Foundation Summer Camp for Burn Injured Youth.
UPDATE:  The goal for the 2022 RGNR was to raise enough funds to pay for three campers to attend the Professional Fire Fighters of Wisconsin Charitable Foundation Summer Camp for Burn Injured Youth at a cost of $2,500 per camper!   The 2022 RGNR participants and others stepped up to the plate and knocked it out of the park.  The 2022 participants dug deep to donate enough money that we will be able to fund FIVE campers to attend burn camp.
