I have joined the "Easy Riders" team with captain Linda Pritchard. Ride for Refuge in Orillia is supporting the North Simcoe Victim Services. As a past volunteer with this organization I witnessed first hand the important work done by NSVS; assisting individuals during life crisis while working closely with the OPP. NSVS volunteers responde to individuals experienceing trauma, violence, accidents, fires and much more. Volunteers assist in many ways including just being present with a person dealing with loss or tragedy or helping them navigate services and find tempory housing when they have been displaced from their housing.
Volunters are free but their are many costs associated with providing services to those in need including cost of hotels, gasoline if driving clients out of town, food and emergency supplies.
Please consider joining the "Easy Riders" team! If you are not able to ride any amount of donations would be appreciated to help me and our team raise funds for NSVS.
Let me know if you need further information about NSVS or the Ride.
With gratitude!
