The donation, which was presented by Founder and Main Organizer of the Rocky Point Rally, Oscar Palacio Soto, along with other members of the organizing committee, is the result of fundraising events that benefit several institutions year after year during the “Greatest Motorcycle Fiesta Just South of the Border.”

This support comes from funds raised through Registration donations paid by participants at the Rocky Point Rally, as well as the Bike Show, and local Poker Run. This year, total funds raised reached $396,560 pesos, which was distributed among the charitable organizations in December – culminating with the recent donation to the Dialysis Center.
