Bally’s Atlantic City recently held a 25-mile bike ride to benefit the Helen David Relief Fund with support from the USBG National Charity Foundation. The Helen David Relief Fund supports those in the bar industry undergoing cancer treatment by awarding financial grants to qualified individuals. Through this year’s charity bike race, $15,000 was raised. “It’s great to see the kindness extended by our industry sponsors to host Atlantic City riders from many New Jersey LIFE and Northeast restaurants, bars, and casinos for this bike ride,” says Frank Martucci, USBG National Charity Foundation Board President and Director of Beverage and Nightlife for Bally’s Corporation. “During these challenging times in our industry, we need to continue to promote health and wellness amongst all of our peers. To get outside and bike along coastal South Jersey surely gives all our riders a great opportunity to relax, exercise, and enjoy catching up with fellow industry peers while raising funds.”

More than 40 riders set out at 10:30 a.m. local time from Bally’s Boardwalk base and finished with a complimentary lunch and happy hour at Bally’s Beach Bar, courtesy of the HDRF Team Negroni. The route spanned the length of New Jersey’s scenic coast, passing through towns like Ventnor, Margate, Longport, Somers Point and Northfield. Bally’s Atlantic City thanks partners Angel Envy, Bacardi, Boston Beer Company, Campari USA, FIJI Water, Heineken USA, Mr. Finger’s Alibi Gin, Teremana, Tito’s Handmade Vodka, and Whistling Andy Distillery for their help with this event.

HDRF is a philanthropic grant program of the USBG Foundation, honoring the memory of a Michigan bar owner Helen David who had breast cancer twice during her lifetime. HDRF financially assists those in the bar industry fighting breast and other types of cancer. If you or someone you know in the bar industry could benefit from this program, please visit www. usbgfoundation.org/hdrf.

The USBG National Charity Foundation is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization whose mission is to advance the lifelong stability and well-being of service industry professionals through education and charitable activities. The USBG Foundation was formed in 2012 to expand the charitable impact of the United States Bartenders’ Guild (USBG). Visit www.usbgfoundaiton. org for more information. PRH
