Red Deer Regional Health Foundation’s 12 Hour Ride for Healthcare

Jan 6, 2022 | 2:27 PM

Red Deer Regional Health Foundation is welcoming cyclists from all over Alberta to participate in their new event to support healthcare – Cycle for Central Alberta.

On Mar. 25, participants are invited to ride for 12 hours in person at Holiday Inn & Suites Red Deer South, in the comfort of their own home or outdoors.

“In 2021, a group of cyclists did a ride for fun and ended up raising $25,000,” said Manon Therriault, Chief Executive Officer of the Red Deer Regional Health Foundation. “Those funds helped us purchase medical equipment such as Sipap Ventilators, a TIMS Swallowing Station, Holter Monitors, Bladder Scanners and much more.”

Officials say the Foundation’s goal in 2022 is to double that amount and raise $50,000.
