Charity Ride To Help Kids In Need

In March I am riding 650km over 5 days from Christchurch to Queenstown to help raise over $250k for underprivileged kids. $250k through KidsCan charity will help provide the basics for over 1200 kids in need.

KidsCan’s mission is to provide food, clothing and basic healthcare in schools to enable disadvantaged children to reach their full potential. There are over 305,000 kiwi kids living in hardship. That’s 1 in 4 children without the basics. Over 105,000 kids now have access to KidsCan programmes. More information on their great work can be found at their website KidsCan.

Every dollar raised will go to the cause! All riders have paid $1500 to do the ride as well as all expenses getting to the start line through to Queenstown and home again (Flights, Accommodation and tight fitting Lycra).

Our passion for this great cause is rooted in the desire to see every child have a fair opportunity to succeed in life. As parents we all do everything we can to offer opportunities to our children. As citizens, in a society with an ever widening gap, we are compelled to do what we can to help other children in our community. We can’t change the world – but we can tip the scales for 1,200 kids back in their favour a little.

I would hugely appreciate your support. Please click on the link below to find out more and to donate to a great cause:
