The season of gratitude, gift giving and festivity is winding down and a whole new year stretches out in front of us. Giving to those less fortunate is important all year long, and no one personifies that more than riders.

We asked the readers of Motorcycle Mojo Magazine about the touching/charitable moto events they’ve been part of in 2013. Their responses and good will stretch right across the country, and range from local to national efforts. They’ve made a difference in thousands of lives

Use their list to plan your charitable engagements this year. While not everyone is a fan of group rides, everyone can contribute in their own way.
