For 30 years, the Philadelphia Centurions Motorcycle Club has ridden from Northeast Philadelphia, down to North Broad Street to bring joy, smiles and toys to our patients, and it is truly the highlight of the summer.
All donations go to the mission of providing care to children and teens with routine and rare orthopedic conditions, including fractures, sports injuries, scoliosis, spinal cord injuries and more. All care is provided regardless of their ability to pay or their insurance status.
In addition to toy donations, monetary donations have been part of the Centurions Motor Cycle Club, the Philadelphia chapter's annual Christmas in July Toy Run. To date, the group has collectively raised nearly $941,717, and a permanent plaque is on the hospital donor wall honoring their contribution.
It is hard to believe that the Philadelphia chapter of the Centurions, a police-sponsored motorcycle club, has roared into Shriners Children's every year since 1996. The chapter members and the community that rallies together to raise money for a good cause are like none other. They come bearing gifts and cheer, led by none other than Santa himself.
What would the last Sunday in July be without our annual Christmas in July Toy Run, hosted by the Centurions Motorcycle Club? Please join us!
