We create 'Schools of Hope' in the slums to give children access to education

Story

You are very welcome to Ewan and Robbie's fundraising page! Please read on, and if you fancy donating a couple of quid you would be a hero.

This June, we will be taking on an intrepid cycle challenge that's not for the faint hearted:

500 miles, across 5 countries in 5 days.

The rough route is: Liege (Belgium) >  Maastricht (Netherlands) > Cologne (Germany) > Luxembourg > Reims (France) > Paris!

Why? We are raising money for an excellent charity called Challenge Aid.

Since its inception, Challenge Aid has raised over £200,000 through working with 1,300 schools and 250,000 pupils, corporate groups and individual adult challengers.

The charity's work is focused on taking children out of poverty through education, mainly in the slums of Nairobi, Kenya. The money raised from this trip will be going directly towards building an actual physical school in the slums - how cool is that?! Check out more details here: http://www.challengeaid.org/

We take for granted our safe running water and excellent sanitation system in this country, however unfortunately these guys aren't so lucky. Any small change you may be able to donate will be very much appreciated!

Peace

Ewan

ChallengeAid (CA) raises money through sponsored challenges in the UK. None of the money raised is used for admin purposes. With that money we create Schools of Hope in slums in East Africa to allow aspirational children, through education, to escape the cycle of poverty in which they are trapped.
