Nick Danforth of Lewiston founded the nonprofit Pain To Power Suicide Awareness to raise awareness of the heartbreaking reality that affects so many lives.
Nick sat down with me and told me how it all started with the simple idea of honoring his late father and his friend’s late brother with a little motorcycle tour.
This ride featured cyclists from across the state to remember those we have lost. Suicide and mental health are often overlooked, and the issue is of utmost importance to Nick and his team. Funds raised during the event will be donated to local mental health organizations and suicide prevention programs.
The Ride for Suicide is more than just a motorcycle event, as there is live music, over 25 vendors and raffle events.
Nick is also offering one lucky winner the chance to take home a new motorcycle. Tickets are $100 each. The goal is to sell 100 tickets to give away this beautiful motorcycle!
