LIFTOFF!!!
Today I am officially launching my fundraising effort for World Bicycle Relief. It's pretty simple and straightforward. Go here: http://grassroots.kintera.org/active/khai and donate a bike. It will only cost you $134, but that small amount of money will have a MASSIVE impact on the lives of several children. Kids in Africa routinely walk 3-4hrs each way to attend school. Very often the girls are forced to drop out because they are needed at home to help with the family chores. A bicycle can reduce that commute time sufficiently such that they can afford to stay in school while still helping with the family obligations. Education is the foundation for success later in life.
For every bicycle donated, I will schlep 3 pounds on my ~2000km bike tour this Summer. My goal is 100 bikes - so 300lbs. That's a lot of ballast...
Please help me to help these kids. It won't cost you much and the positive impact you can have is absolutely incredible.
Make me suffer, so that these kids don't have to!
