The Hummel Family Healing Cycle Ride is back this fall in Niagara-on-the-Lake, with participants hoping to raise $60,000 to support local palliative care.
The annual cycle ride is set to take place Saturday, Oct. 18 at 9 a.m., with fundraising individuals and teams encouraging people to donate from now until Sunday, Oct. 19.
All the proceeds will go to support Niagara-on-the-Lake Community Palliative Care, which provides end-of-life care and support for residents of NOTL and their families.
Alongside this, they offer caregiver relief and assistance, professional counselling, bereavement support, mobility equipment lending, transportation and more.
Participants in the event can complete a five-kilometre walk or ride, a 10-kilometre ride or a 25-kilometre ride.
The ride starts from Veterans Memorial Park in Old Town, with cyclists, runners and walkers meeting at the NOTL Tennis Club pavilion off Veterans Lane.
The Hummel family has pledged to match every dollar raised, up to $25,000. As of Wednesday afternoon, the campaign has raised $1,150.
