Riders against cancer

Riders Against Cancer is an organization designed to raise money and offer services to help those struggling with the financial, physical, and mental effects of cancer.
Mission Statement: As people with a passion to ride, we will combine our efforts to provide the essential help to as many people with cancer as possible. We will donate our time, money, and efforts to lighten the burden of those with cancer so they can live life to its fullest.
Company Goals and Objectives: The goal of Riders Against Cancer is to become known nationwide as one of the leaders in raising money for those struggling with cancer. This will be achieved through expansion outside of Utah within the first year, raising a minimum of $100,000 per year, and helping at least six families per year that are struggling with the effects of cancer.
Business Philosophy: To help individuals in the riding community to understand that one person can make a difference. That something small can lead to something great.
Cancer is becoming more prevalent in society. Though treatments are getting better a cure is still not found. Until this cure is found there will be people that are in need of help and support.
Utah is a society that loves the outdoors. Almost every activity that involves riding can be done in Utah. Which means the market for Riders Against Cancer is huge. There are opportunities all year long to gain exposure to our cause. The management core of Riders Against Cancer not only has a passion for riding, but also has experience with fighting and overcoming cancer and experience in the creation and success of business.
