What We Do

Charities

Red River Valley Motorcyclists isn't just about the open road - we ride with purpose. Our nonprofit is fueled by a deep commitment to giving back to those who served our country and to strengthening our community and surrounding areas. From honoring veterans through programs like the Veterans Honor Flight of ND/MN to supporting Journey Home North Dakota Animal Rescue, every mile we ride is about making a difference. 

When you sponsor or donate to RRVM, you're not just putting your name on a banner-- you're standing shoulder to shoulder with a brotherhood and sisterhood of riders committed to supporting communities in the Red River Valley. 

Your support means:

  • Direct impact for local community members and organizations
  • Visibility at community events
  • Recognition across our website, social media, and promotional materials
  • The pride of knowing you're fueling change right here in the Red River Valley

    "My dad Leon was on last spring's honor flight and he cannot stop talking about the trip and what it meant to him. It is groups like yours that make unmeasurable contributions to those that served to keep this nation free. I am not a member, but I started to help sell raffle tickets last year and again this year just because of what it sponsors, the honor flight."
