Formation of the Wesley Reed Relief Fund
Each year, a portion of funds will be added to a dedicated relief fund where Ridn' for a Reason can help those in need throughout the year. Wesley Reed was born with Acute Myeloid Leukemia - an extremely rare diagnosis that required intensive care at American Family Children's Hospital. He fought courageously for 2 months.

Remembering Bill Carpenter
At the 2026 ride, we also remember a great man. Ridn' for a Reason lost one of its founders Bill Carpenter. You can find Bill's obituary Here: Bill Carpenter's Obituary
Lewie was one of the founders of the Ridn' for a Reason event. His dedication to the event, God, and the community shines bright. See Lewie's obituary here: Lewie's Obituary
The Kralovetz family would like to extend their thanks and appreciation to everyone who participated in donating their time, money, and gifts in the Ridin' for a Reason benefit at Louis Hintz's farm on July 15. Thank you to the Hintz family for use of their farm and creating this wonderful event for a family in need year after year. We are grateful and humbled to have been chosen as the beneficiaries this year, after learning about Jason's diagnosis and navigating a new normal for his health and medical management. Thank you to all of our church members who donated. We thank God every day for such a supportive church family & caring community!
