Donate

Fundraising is a major part of our clubs purpose. During our inaugural year we donated money to RSPCA Victoria, The Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre Melbourne and The Royal Children’s Hospital Melbourne.

Since then we have supported and continue to support many charity rides including the annual Geelong and Melbourne Pink Ribbon Rides, White Ribbon ride, Brown Ribbon Ride, BACA – 100 mile ride, Black Dog Ride and various Toy Runs around Victoria.

In 2013 we hosted a poker run in the Bendigo area raising money for the Black Dog Institute and Righteous Pups Australia.

Our annual Pillions for Pride raffle started in 2015 and we have donated the proceeds to Midsumma, JOY94.9, Way out, Minus18 and ALGA (Australian Lesbian and gay Archives). We have also donated to Pride March Victoria, Bent TV and Star Observer.

In 2021 (postponed to 2022) Dykes on Bikes Melbourne celebrated their 10th year as a club with the Dykes on Bikes Melbourne 10 Year Anniversary Night. The event raised $7,500 for Koorie Pride Victoria.

The charity DoBM will support for 2022-2023 FY will be the Housing for the Age Action Group.
