WROAR Ride ready to go

From the WROAR Ride

TORONTO, ON -- The second annual WROAR Ride will take place Sunday, June 11 in Toronto, leaving at 10 a.m. from The Docks on Cherry Street, south of Lakeshore.

The ride raises funds for the Toronto Rape Crisis Centre/Multicultural Women Against Rape, and to focus attention on the issue of violence against women.

The Toronto Rape Crisis Centre has a 32-year history of community-based volunteer help for those who have suffered sexual violence. The centre provides 24-hour confidential crisis counselling, as well as educational programs and other services.

Last year’s WROAR Ride raised more than $8,500. While the WROAR Ride is an all-women’s motorcycle event, men are encouraged to get involved by riding as a passenger.
