Ride To Freedom Van Driver

Ricky Overby

Since 2012, Ricky Overby has been working as transport driver of the RCAPS “Ride to Freedom” van.  He has transported a countless number of animals up and down the East Coast from North Carolina to New York.

Every Friday night, Ricky embarks on his journey. Every animal on his transport receives very special care because he is a very kind, compassionate person. He makes sure the crates for the animals are clean, and he provides them with a calm, safe environment to travel until they begin their new life as loved, rescued pets.

In the thousands of miles Ricky has traveled, he declares that he has seen it all! He definitely brings his warm smile, his own sense of humor, and his deep commitment to the RCAPS mission every week. We are truly grateful for his part in creating happy endings for animals in need.
