“The RiderDown Laptop Project has provided access to the world to Jeremy, Jim, and Chase,” said Bruce Vermeulen, President of the RiderDown Foundation. “The continued success of this project is possible as a direct result of the amazing kindness and generosity of the GMB, and the Berg family as a whole.”
“For my family, it was a pleasure to be given the chance to help in the RD Laptop project. I think this is a GREAT thing to do to help people "re-engage life" and provide a means for them to share and be involved,” said Mike Berg, President of the GMB. “Those people who are injured permanently in a riding accident are not forgotten and they are very much a part of the passion we who ride all share. I have always said, "you can take yourself off of a motorcycle, but the love of riding motorcycles never leaves you."
About RiderDown Foundation:
With a nationwide network of volunteers ready to lend support and assistance to injured riders, RiderDown is actively giving back to the off road community. As a non-profit, 501©3 charitable organization, RiderDown has been delivering on its mission of “Helping Riders Up” since 2005. Dedicated to helping responsible off-road motorcyclists and ATV racers who have been injured while riding, proceeds are used to provide assistance to riders and their families when faced with medical expenses and related issues. The medical bill review team they work with has saved injured riders thousands of dollars on excessive and/or unnecessary medical charges and their “Angels” visit injured riders in the hospital and at home, offering a friendly voice during difficult times.
