Ride for CHANGE Ride for HOPE™
Originating in Chicago, Illinois, Ride for CHANGE Ride for HOPE™ is the programmatic thrust behind the World of Soul® Motorcycle Community. It tells a story about America's history that says despite our challenges we have always found ways to move the nation forward.
In 2008, over a thousand motorcyclists led by Terry Hardy, founder of the World of Soul® Motorcycle Community came together in celebration of its activities from across the nation that included raising over $100k for the construction of the National Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial in Washington, DC, registering voters prior to the historic presidential election and collaborating with Rev. Jesse L. Jackson, Sr. of the Rainbow PUSH Coalition to help more students have access to Historically Black Colleges and Universities via college tours and academic scholarships.
The program continues to develop and grow with the support of World of Soul® Motorcycle Community's Riders United to Serve Humanity™ in collaboration with community organizations, institutions and government agencies with the assistance of elected officials, other foundations and corporate interest.
