Anthony's Way sets 2026 Ride for Kindness dates in Pennsylvania and North Carolina

Anthony's Way – The Road to Kindness will hold two October 2026 Ride for Kindness events during ADHD Awareness Month, with rides in Hershey, Pennsylvania, and Wilmington, North Carolina. The nonprofit says the events will raise money to help children and teenagers with ADHD access care, support and other resources.

Why it matters: - Anthony's Way – The Road to Kindness is using two community rides to fund support for children and teenagers with ADHD. - The events are timed to ADHD Awareness Month, giving the nonprofit a built-in platform for awareness and fundraising. - The organization says 100% of proceeds go directly to a child or teenager with ADHD, making the rides a direct source of aid rather than a general fundraiser.

What happened: - Anthony's Way announced dates for its 2026 Ride for Kindness events in Hershey, Pennsylvania, and Wilmington, North Carolina. - The 2nd Annual Ride for Kindness in Hershey is set for Saturday, Oct. 3, 2026. - The 4th Annual Ride for Kindness in Wilmington is set for Saturday, Oct. 24, 2026. - Both rides are open to cars, trucks and motorcycles. - Registration is open for both events. - More information and registration are available at the organization’s website.

The details: - The Hershey ride starts at Susquehanna Valley Harley Davidson at 9 a.m. - The Wilmington ride starts at Shipwreck Harley Davidson at 9 a.m. - Dice run ride routes will be announced in the coming weeks. - Riders roll at every stop and record each number on a scorecard. - The highest total roll at the final stop wins a $250 cash prize. - The lowest total roll at the final stop wins $100. - Registration costs $25 and includes the first scorecard. - Additional scorecards cost $20 each. - Both events will include raffles, prize drawings and a 50/50 drawing. - Sponsorship opportunities are available now, and the nonprofit is directing inquiries to Contact@anthonysroadtokindness.com. - The Bellezza family covers all administrative and operating costs for the organization. - Anthony's Way says every registration, scorecard and raffle or drawing ticket sold goes toward a child or teenager with ADHD.

Between the lines: - The rides are also a memorial effort for Anthony R. Bellezza, who lived with ADHD and died in 2016 at age 18 from ADHD-related impulsivity. - Anthony's Way was founded in October 2023 by Tony and Cassi Bellezza to help kids facing ADHD-related challenges. - The Hershey and Wilmington locations reflect Anthony's life in Pennsylvania and his family's ties to North Carolina. - Anthony's love of cars and motorcycles gives the rides a personal connection beyond fundraising. - Tony Bellezza said no family should have to figure ADHD-related challenges out alone, and that every mile ridden and every dollar raised is meant to help a child get support and care.

What's next: - The nonprofit will release ride routes in the coming weeks. - Anthony's Way will continue promoting registration and sponsorships ahead of the October events. - Additional event details are expected before the rides begin.

The bottom line: - The 2026 Ride for Kindness events turn a personal loss into a two-state fundraiser aimed at helping children and teens with ADHD thrive.
