Motorcycle Club Five Rides to the Rescue to Assist Patients at the Samuelson Breast Care Center at Northwest Hospital

Big hearts, lots of leather and family fun help breast cancer survivors at Northwest Hospital.

Motorcycle Club Five is #1! The club’s charitable arm, MCVcares, Inc., recently held its Ribbon Ride 2017! This year, the Ribbon Ride was part of the club’s amazing fundraising efforts to generously support patients at the Herman & Walter Samuelson Breast Care Center at Northwest Hospital.

On a recent Saturday morning, bikers and their guests enjoyed breakfast at Full Moon Pub and Grill and then took a scenic hour-and a-half hour ride through the back roads of Maryland all the way up to Lake Redman in York Pennsylvania. Once they arrived, riders and non-riders ate a delicious BBQ lunch.

2017 will be the fourth year in a row that the club’s very successful Fivers for Survivors campaign will make a much appreciated donation to help patients at the Samuelson Breast Care Center at Northwest. Among the services enhanced by the efforts and kindness of MCVcares are breast reconstruction, prevention programs and screenings.
