HOW YOU CAN HELP THE RIDER RELIEF FUND
The Rider Relief Resources, INC, previously Resistol Relief Resources, is a 501 (c) (3) charity pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code of the United States. Contributions are limited to the maximum permitted by law. In 1999, the Rider Relief Fund was created when Resistol pledged $1 million dollars over ten years to start the non-profit organization. The Rider Relief Fund benefits anyone involved in the sport of bull riding and at all levels. The Rider Relief Fund is available to high school, college and professional bull riders as well as all people who work in the sport of bull riding.
The Rider Relief Fund has distributed over $1.4 million to bull riders of all ages, to their families, and to personnel involved in the sport of bull riding.
Any athlete or other person involved in the sport of bull riding who is injured may submit an application for assistance from the Rider Relief Fund to the fund administrator. The Board of Directors reviews each applicant's request for assistance and determines to whom and in what amount of assistance can be granted. These decisions are made at the sole discretion of the Board and not all requests are able to be funded.
To succeed by continually offering support to injured athletes and personnel, we need your tax-deductible donation today. Assistance can only be relied upon money that comes from RRF fund-raisers, donations, and Rider Relief Fund contributors.
As a non-profit charity, the Rider Relief Fund will do more than give you a tax deduction. It will continue to provide your athletes with a lifeline for financial support.

The Rider Relief Fund was there when no one else was. When a guy is down and out and on his last leg, they're there for you. Bull riders don't make the kind of money that professional football or baseball players do. I don't know what I would have done without the fund. Jerome Davis |

When you are talking about the most dangerous sport in the world and the injuries that go with it, from nagging to catastrophic the Rider Relief Fund is essential not only to the riders but their families. Ty Murray |

I would personally like to thank the Relief Fund Board for the assistance and everything else they do for the bull riding family. Without the Fund, a lot of people's dreams would not come true. Again, I really appreciate it. Ryan Pettyjohn |
