Nonprofit Overview

Causes: Human Services

Mission: Our mission is to positively impact the motorcycle community through direct participation with motorcyclists, not only to provide emergency relief after an accident but additionally we aim at creating motorcycle awareness to reduce the overall number of accidents. We aim to create beneficial partnerships with other organizations to increase the reach of all parties. We are a partner in awareness and education everywhere we go. By reducing the number of motorcycle accidents collectively, we reduce the intense demand for services, allowing us to focus on the most critical in need. Through Rider SOS Accident Fund, we have established a constant source of support for riders involved in an accident. Support services include the loaning of medical equipment, helping with transportation to appointments, caring for kids or pets, and financial assistance. Our ability is only possible through community support and sponsorship. Our nonprofit organization guarantees that all funds raised locally will remain in the community to help other riders.

Rider SOS Accident Fund has been there for several of my friends who have been involved in motorcycle accidents. They are very attentive to the needs of the rider and have very little if any overhead that they have to pay for thanks to a generous sponsor. The administrators are volunteers and take no pay for what they do for the injured rider and their family. They not only help with cash payments; they have resources for ancillary medical equipment and help with transportation to doctors appointments , rehab, etc. How many non-profits can you say that about? The other nice thing is that they only serve the community in Southern Nevada, your donations stay here for us.

Tragedy came upon my family as a dunk driver ruined our lives. We lived thousands of miles away from our loved one. Tanya and SOS provided all the information we needed to help ease us into the process of healing and completing the tasks before us. This was of great significance and comfort to us and we will never forget these wonderful people and will continue to support them forever.

Rider SOS is an invaluable asset to the motorcycle community throughout the Las Vegas Valley. They have assisted countless riders and their families during their darkest and scariest hours. They support the rider and their family in the immediate aftermath and remain a constant support for the long haul. My husband was in a terrible accident caused by a truck that T-boned him on his bike 7 years ago. They offered free access to necessary medical equipment and anything else he may need. The motorcycle community would not be the same without Rider SOS!

I am very blessed to have meant Tawnya, she reached out to me the night my husband Sean Scott died and has continued to check on me since. I receive the help from her non profit organization Rider SOS. My husband passed away in a horrible motorcycle accident on july 31st 2023 and one of his wishes for when he died was to have a memorial ride that he proudly was part of for other fallen riders. Not only did they have a couple rides for him, they had a beautiful funeral escort as well from the mortuary to the cemetery. And with the help of the Rider SOS accident funds they were able to raise enough money to pay the mortuary. I am beyond greatful and touched by the heart, care, and help from this organization. ❤️

I can’t begin to express how Rider SOD helped me through the passing of my Dad. He was in an unexpected accident right before Christmas, ultimately passing on Christmas Eve. I don’t know how I would have accomplished anything without their help. Tawnya was so kind and welcoming, even after never meeting her before. She helped me though every step of his death.

The work that Rider SOS does to support riders and their families is nothing short of miracles.

I will remember the kindness and generosity shown to me by them and all of my dad’s extended family for the rest of my life.


Thank you, Tawnya. Thank you Damon. Thank you all for everything you do in support of riders.

Rider SOS have been around for several years. I have watched them become a great community partner for motorcycle riders and their families. They hold different events throughout the year to raise money for injured or killed riders as well as set up a fundraising platform to assist these riders and their families. They also collect medical equipment for use at no cost for the injured riders.
My son was killed in a motorcycle accident earlier this year and Rider SOS stepped in to assist my daughter in law raise the funds she would need to not only bury my son but to ease the burden of the loss of income for the immediate time. They were there for us every step of the way with anything we needed during our darkest time.
Tawnya and her angels are a dedicated group of people who spend countless hours serving our community. The community is lucky to have a this nonprofit for all they do.

I have the pleasure of being part of this incredible organization. Before Rider SOS there wasn’t anything out there to help injured or fallen riders after an accident and there was a huge need for an organization of this type. When we started we all agreed that we would be 100% volunteer run, and we continue to be to this day. Not one person receives a paycheck which means we truly give from the heart. The amount of families that come to us after we have stepped in to help that tell us they could never have gotten through that tragic part of their lives is payment enough for us.

Rider SOS accident fund helps riders when they need help the most. Asking for help is difficult but asking Rider SOS is easy, they are caring, compassionate and empathetic because they are riders themselves. Every ride is a risk but knowing Rider sos is there to help if the unfortunate happens puts your mind at ease. Great people for a great cause.
