What Is Ride For Dime?

Ride For Dime, a 501c3 charitable organization,  memorializes guitar hero and friend, "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott along with Jeff Thompson, Nathan Bray, and Erin Halk.   Ride for Dime proudly gives back to the charities that were of interest to Dime during his life as well as charities he would have been proud to be a part of; Little Kids Rock, Covenant House, and Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America.

"With all his greatness and accomplishments on the guitar, Dime will be missed more for his giving personality, charisma, caring for others, love, and most of all his HEART!! Twice as big as the state of TEXAS!!!!!!!!!!!! Dime gave it all every day to each and every one of us and our lives have forever been hollowed without him... "  -Vinnie Paul Abbott

"I am very honored & very proud to be working with such a great heart felt group of people here at the Ride for Dime! They are the most selfless, respectful crew of guys I've had the privilege to work with when it comes to the remembrance of "Dimebag" Darrell! I am very excited to be a part of this organization & I hope with all of everyone's continued support we can make these events continue to grow across the nation! Bless you for all your efforts in keeping Dime's memory alive & I hope all of our events can put a smile on your face knowing that you supported some great causes & most of all showed your love for a very kind man... Mr. "Dimebag" Darrell!
Thank you!
& To the "Pink Beard" in the sky! Cheerz!"  -Rita Haney
