Omasan Akporiaye is raising money for MapAction

Story

Yo!!

So as some of you know, I have been volunteering for MapAction about 8 months now, and being the nutter that I am, I have decided to cycle 170 miles over the Chiltern MOUNTAINS (hills really) in 3 days, to raise money for this charity.

MapAction does a lot of fantastic work and we rely on charitable donations to fund our activities. So please donate whatever you can.

P.S I haven't ridden a bike since I was 14, and have done absolutely no training for this. Guess who's going to be walking like a cowboy for the next week!!

MapAction

MapAction believes that applying geospatial expertise to humanitarian situations can greatly improve outcomes for the people affected. Global humanitarian needs outstrip resources. Expert geospatial and data analysis can help stretch those resources for maximum impact. Many professionals want to donate their energy and skills to help. MapAction is the bridge which enables them to do so effectively. We are a non-profit organisation that collaborates with partners around the world to help anticipate, prepare for and respond to humanitarian emergencies. We strive to ensure governments, regional and local disaster management agencies and humanitarian responders have access to the information and analysis that they need to make key decisions, at the right times, to save lives and alleviate suffering. We are a team of around 100 people, 75% of them expert volunteers, plus a small roster of standby consultants. Combining the passion of volunteerism with the rigour and reliability of professional standards, the ‘MapAction spirit’ is something we work hard to maintain and the willingness of our team to go the extra mile is often fed back to us.
