Our Story

About HOGRUNNERS CHARITY RIDERS

From a May 2015 IRS determination letter to today's Hog Fest stages — we are Kokomo riders and neighbors who raise what we can so families do not face medical bills and empty pantries alone.

Riders Who Refuse to Look Away

HOGRUNNERS CHARITY RIDERS INC was organized as an Indiana nonprofit and recognized by the IRS as a 501(c)(3) public charity in May 2015. Our mailing address remains PO Box 6842, Kokomo, IN 46904, and our clubhouse home with Hog Runners MC sits at 2550 N Washington Street.

The public face many people know is Hog Runners MC — roughly 1.7K Facebook followers, Instagram @hogrunnersmc, charity rides, and Hog Fest weekends that turn engines into grocery cards, rent help, and medical fundraisers. The legal charity behind those rides is this organization: EIN 47-3980596, Principal Officer Cole Acord.

Over the years we have stood with families like Alana & Jonathon during cancer treatment in 2022, and in 2026 we are rolling again for Emery and other Howard County households in crisis. Our mission is simple: support struggling families and strengthen community wellbeing through rider-led charity programs.

What Guides Us

Core Values

Five promises we keep when the throttle opens and when the books close.

Compassion

We show up without judgment — whether a family needs a Flash Pass donation or a quiet grocery drop after a hospital stay.

Integrity

Shirt sponsors at $100 and large gifts alike deserve clear receipts, honest event updates, and officers who answer their email.

Direct Impact

Eighty-eight percent of funds go to programs — rides, relief kits, mentoring hours — not glossy middlemen.

Radical Transparency

We file Form 990-N as required, publish our EIN, list our principal officer, and invite questions about every Hog Fest dollar.

Community First

Howard County comes first — clubhouse neighbors, local food banks, first responders, and families who already know the Hog Runners name.
