Peachin Schwartz & Weingardt (PSW), a certified public accountant firm, takes pride in its 26-year involvement in the Riley Miracle Ride.
The Riley Miracle Ride is one of the nation’s largest and longest running motorcycle charity events. The event has raised over $6.5 million for Riley Hospital since 1994. The money raised goes towards a cause with statewide reach that assists all children with a wide range of illnesses and injuries.
With the help of community support, organizers of this year’s Riley Miracle Ride are hoping to raise $300,000 and have 5,000 motor-cyclists participate. (Photo provided)
PSW Principal Gino Johnson has led the firm’s relationship with Riley Miracle Ride as a board member, rider and by supervising the event’s accounting functions. In fact, 26 years ago, Johnson took his 5-year-old daughter for her first ride during the event, and today, she is a nurse practitioner at Riley.
“It has really come full circle for me,” said Johnson. “The most rewarding part of the day is participating in the ride and riding by Riley Hospital. All of the children who are patients come out to the street and watch the motorcycles drive by with smiles on their faces. The moment is really indescribable.”
This year’s event will take place Saturday and Sunday. The goal is to have 5,000 motorcyclists and raise $300,000. You can learn more about the event at miracleride.net.
