On August 23^rd, 2008, Women on Wheels MN Chapter sponsored the fifth annual Ride for Survival.  Seventy-nine riders rode over a hundred miles on a beautiful summer day, raising $4600 to support the work of Day One^®. 

 Cathy Meyers, the Chair of Women on Wheels, was instrumental in organizing the event and making it a success.  “Day One^® is an ideal partner for Women on Wheels. When we help Day One^® we are helping victims of domestic violence throughout the whole state of Minnesota, including the victims living in
small towns.  We are giving them a chance at a peaceful life,” said Cathy.

The proceeds raised by the ride will assist Day One^® to answer more than 9,000 calls from victims of domestic violence, and pay transportation costs for domestic violence victims in need of emergency
safe housing. 

Thank you to all the supporters, riders, volunteers and donors who helped to
make this event a success!
