Welcome to mat 's ride
We would like to welcome all past participants and any new participants to this year's ride. Those of you who knew Mat, knew that he appreciated any good ride whether it was his Ninja 500 or a 1955 Chevy pick-up truck. So to honour Mat and help us spread the word we have expanded our horizons this year and extend a welcome to both motorcycle enthusiasts and those who prefer their classic four wheels. We will again be raising funds to support the wonderful Youth Education Programs that Calgary Mental Health Association - Calgay Region provides to schools in the Calgary and surrounding area. We are also setting our sights on raising enough funds to start a Scholarship program in Mat's memory at SAIT.
Mat's Ride is dedicated to: raising awareness of youth depression, reducing the stigma associated with it, and providing education and surpport to youth, families and educators.
