You Are Not Alone (YANA) is a local non-profit society that improves access to health care by providing accommodation and funding to Comox Valley families who need to travel outside the community for medical treatment for a child under 19 or for a pregnant mother.
The annual YANA Ride raises 15-20% of the funds needed to support YANA families in our community each year. We are extremely grateful to every person who supports this fundraiser! Every ticket purchase helps us help a local family when they need it most.
