Now in the US they have biker gangs that stand for a good cause, I knew about the cool lot that stand behind your Veterans but I didn't knew BACA - Bikers Against Child Abuse who stand with and protect children who have been abused  Awesome guys

There are also a large number of " Biker Groups " often times made up of former military personnel that not only visit Veteran hospitals but volunteer at those same hospitals. In addition to BACA, a number of Biker groups hold " Poker Runs " to financially help the families of very sick children who are receiving medical treatment.
A number of groups have also been involved with the " Make-A-Wish foundation which helps fund " last requests " of terminally Ill Children as well as making donations to the Humane Society which provides funding to animal shelters and adoption events for shelter animals. I'm sure some of these groups have been involved with other worthy causes that I'm not aware of as well.
Hopefully, the stigma of wearing functional biker leather and riding a motorcycle are a thing of the past as I know of a number of them that are doctors, police officers, lawyers and other professionals.
