WHY should you raise funds? Simple really. Without funds the ANABD would not exist and People with Disabilities would have a hard time or even be excluded from joining the Biking Community. The main question here is not why but what kind of event could you run? The answer to that is anything. A few things that we can suggest are:

Round the Coast Ride End to End ride Head/Beard Shaves Fancy Dress Pub-crawls Live Music/Disco Nights No Booze/Cigs for 1 Month Weight Loss Challenge Parachuting Rally Dance Donate a Service Auction Yard Sale Bake Sale

Legacies Long Distance Walk Bike Push Sponsored Swim Pub Quiz/Trivia Competitions Bike Show Raffle Auction Poker Run Guess the Ride Mileage Dunk Tank Silent Auction Golf Tournament - Best Ball, Sponser a Hole, etc Cow Patty Plop or Duck Plop Bingo

Some of the suggestions can be done on your own, others may need a few friends to assist. Either way the only limit is your imagination, almost anything can be used/done to raise funds. One thing we can guarantee is that you will enjoy the experience and meet some of the best people in society. It has even been known for supporters to become addicted to fundraising events, choosing a different event every year. Behind all the fun is the knowledge that you are helping some-ones dream come true and that is what it's all about.

Not every-one has the time or ability to raise funds by doing an event but don't despair. You could send us a regular donation by standing order. Another method but perhaps a delicate one, is legacies. This is usually not thought of but it is certainly worth considering.

Whatever you decide to do for us your support is appreciated and needed. Without it, there wouldn't be this super family of Bikers called The ANABD helping to lead the World in Disabled Motorcycling.
