MADISON, N.J. (Oct. 20, 2016) – The Drew University equestrian team volunteered at the sixth annual Ride for the Cure event at the Assunpink Wildlife Management Area.
 
The Ride for the Cure is a trail ride bringing the community together to help achieve a promise - to save lives and end breast cancer forever by empowering people, ensuring quality care for all and energizing science to find the cures.
 
The Rangers worked registration at the event, helped riders with questions and were a significant part in making sure the event ran smoothly.
 
Ride for the Cure celebrates breast cancer survivorship, honors those who have lost their battle with the disease and has raised over $250,000 for the fight against breast cancer.
 
The event is unique in that 100% of the net proceeds are allocated to the mission. Seventy-five percent of the net income stays in the community to help fund local programs offering breast health education and breast cancer screening and treatment. The remaining 25 percent of the net income supports the Susan G. Komen Grants Program.
