Indian Motorcycle plans national charity ride to support Folds of Honor

Indian Motorcycle is bringing back its national Folds of Honor charity ride this fall, with hopes of raising $250,000 for the families of fallen or disabled service members and first responders.

Riders across the U.S. will roll out on Sept. 20

The second annual national charity ride will take place on Saturday, Sept. 20, 2025, with organized rides leaving from Indian Motorcycle dealerships across the country.

Registration and donations are now open through the Indian Motorcycle IMRG National Charity webpage.

The closest ride to the Tulsa area will depart from the dealership in Broken Arrow.

A growing tradition of giving

Last year, the event raised $114,000—more than double its $50,000 goal. This year, organizers aim even higher, setting a fundraising target of $250,000.

Proceeds will benefit Folds of Honor, an Owasso-based nonprofit that provides educational scholarships to spouses and children of U.S. military members and first responders who were killed or disabled in the line of duty.

Exclusive incentives for top donors

To drive donations, Indian Motorcycle will auction off a custom 2025 Sport Chief RT, with all proceeds going directly to Folds of Honor.

The top fundraiser will win their own 2025 Indian Sport Chief RT, and the second-highest fundraiser will receive an all-expenses-paid trip to attend the custom bike’s auction.

"A powerful tribute"

Aaron Jax, vice president of Indian Motorcycle, said the event is about more than just riding.

"We are building on that momentum to make an even greater impact in our second year," Jax said. "This event is not just about the ride – it’s a powerful tribute to the brave men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice to serve and protect us, and a testament to our community’s unwavering support."

Scholarships that change lives

Since 2007, Folds of Honor has awarded nearly 62,000 scholarships, totaling approximately $290 million. About 45 percent of scholarship recipients are minorities, and 91 percent of all donations go directly toward the organization’s mission.

Lt. Col. Dan Rooney, founder and CEO of Folds of Honor, expressed gratitude for the continued support.

"By participating in our second charity ride and contributing to these fundraising efforts, riders are making a profound commitment to honoring our nation’s heroes," Rooney said.
