“Charitable giving is an important part of who the Mountaineer Trail Riders are”, said President, Rob Atha. “We are committed to donating a portion of event proceeds to charity”, he continued. The primary beneficiary of the funds raised will be the Mud Buddies Foundation located in Gilbert, WV. They are a non-profit, public charity organization dedicated to providing customized, guided ATV adventures to children affected by physical or developmental disabilities, at no cost. Another local non-profit group, Raleigh County Special Olympics, will also receive a donation.
“The heart of what Mud Buddies does is to enrich the lives of special needs kids”, said Burning Rock marketing director Lisa Gale. “They provide kids with a wide variety of disabilities a safe, off-road experience. And their parents just love it… they see their kids getting outdoors, having a ton of fun, interacting with others and building confidence”, she continued.
