the pride's - helping hand
Here is how the Pride Motorcycle Club helps Department of Corrections
Employees
There are two support systems within the Pride Motorcycle Club, the first being the chapter level and the second being the National Board. The Chapters raise money to support their local members and a portion of all funds raised by chapters goes to the National Board General Fund. The National Board answers the needs of members & non-members.
All annual dues and new membership fees are forwarded to the National Board. All proceeds from the annual “Jail Break” go to the National Board. These funds all go to help correctional employees in their time of need. To help a member or non-member of the Pride MC all one needs to do is to get the information of the employee to a Pride Member. We will then forward it to the National Board.
If you know a Pride member you may have been approached about fundraiser's,
we thought it was time for you to see the results of your involvement,
membership, purchasing tickets and making donations. The following is a quote
from a Pride MC Past National President, at a past Jail Break: “I'm going
to open the vault here, and I'd like to read you some numbers. These are
absolutely staggering to me, and I am proud of this Motorcycle Club, and even
more proud of our accomplishments. These numbers are only made possible by
you, the membership and backbone of this club.
This is how much we have given to correctional families in the past

Recently the club met with the widow of a Correctional Officer who was
killed in Iraq. She said that she could look for someone to blame, sit home
and feel sorry for herself, or she could make a difference. How about you? Isn't it time to join and help make a difference?
