34th One more from the Heart
On Sunday, November 13th, we had the incredible opportunity to host the 34th Annual One More From the Heart Run, and we want to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude to everyone who joined us for this memorable event.
For the past 34 years, this charity motorcycle run has taken place every second Sunday in November, bringing the motorcycle community together to raise vital funds for the residents at Totally Kids Rehabilitation Hospital. This year’s ride was no exception—thanks to the generous support of our bikers and the surrounding community, we raised $7,885!
The money raised will directly benefit our residents by funding essential resources and creating unforgettable experiences. Some of the items already purchased from these funds included Smart TVs, iPads, Bluetooth MP3 players, headphones, speakers, toys, activity items, and more. These items are revitalizing our music & memory program and ensuring that our residents have the tools to stay connected, entertained, and engaged.
Additionally, the funds will help to continue covering holiday celebrations, birthday events, essential equipment, and necessary supplies that families may need help to provide, such as clothing, glasses, hearing aids, and orthotics not covered by insurance.
It was a joy to see the biker community come together once again, and we were thrilled to see so many familiar faces—though we missed some and look forward to seeing them next year. One of our residents shared how much she missed the bikers and expressed excitement for next year’s event. Many families also joined in the fun, participating in motorcycle rides around the block, and it was heartwarming to witness the joy and memories created during the event.
We couldn’t have made this year’s One More From the Heart Run such a success without the support of our bikers, families, staff, volunteers, and donors. Your generosity helps provide the resources and experiences that make a real difference in the lives of our residents. Thank you for being a part of this special tradition, and we look forward to seeing you again next year!
