Ryleigh’s Ride — In Support of SickKids and in Memory of Johnny Valcourt
MOTORCYCLE RIDE | SILENT AUCTION | DINNER
The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) holds a special place in our hearts. Our daughter, Ryleigh, was born at just 29 weeks, weighing a tiny 2 lbs 2 oz. She spent the first few months of her life in the NICU at SickKids in Toronto. During that time, she endured two surgeries on her little head and overcame a very scary prognosis.
Today, Ryleigh is a tough little fighter, full of life, with a contagious smile and a big personality. Our experience at SickKids opened our eyes to the incredible dedication of the staff — the nurses, doctors, surgeons, specialists, social workers, and volunteers — who pour their hearts into helping children every single day.
We wanted to give back.
Ryleigh’s Ride was inspired by Johnny Valcourt — the most amazing spouse and daddy — who dreamed up this event while snuggling Ryleigh in the NICU. Tragically, Johnny passed away in a motorcycle accident on May 2, 2021. This ride now carries on in his honour and legacy.
All proceeds will go toward the building of the new SickKids Hospital — a much-needed facility that will continue providing lifesaving care for countless children and families.
