The Ontario REALTORS Care® Foundation’s annual Motorcycle Ride for Charity returns for its 19th year on September 23 and 24, 2026, bringing together Ontario REALTORS® from across the province to raise funds in support of shelter-related causes and food insecurity initiatives in communities across Ontario.
Over two days, riders will travel more than 850 kilometres through Eastern Ontario, beginning in Aurora and making their way to Calabogie before concluding in Belleville. This year’s event has set its most ambitious fundraising goal to date, with a target of $72,000.
The route will take participants through some of Ontario’s most scenic landscapes, including Lake Simcoe, the Highlands, Bancroft, Calabogie, Lanark Highlands, Rideau Lakes, South Frontenac, Prince Edward County and Belleville. While the journey is known for its winding roads and picturesque views, the true impact of the Ride extends far beyond the road, with funds raised helping local charities address shelter-related needs and food insecurity across the province.
“The Motorcycle Ride for Charity is the Ontario REALTORS Care® Foundation’s flagship fundraising event, and every year it demonstrates the generosity and commitment of Ontario REALTORS®,” said Rebecca Kopel, Chair of the Ontario REALTORS Care® Foundation. “For 19 years, riders have come together to make a meaningful difference in communities across Ontario. Having raised more than $600,000 since the Ride began, we’re excited to build on that momentum and make this our most successful Ride yet.”
Registration remains open for those interested in participating, and donations are welcome from individuals, brokerages and organizations looking to support the cause. To register, donate or learn more about the Motorcycle Ride for Charity, visit RealtorsCareOntario.ca/ride.
