Story

Good news: Team Fehrari has signed a new driver - Christian!

We are fundraising for Cool Earth in connection with a charity run of approximately 2,500 km from Jaisalmer in western India to Leh in the Himalayas in September 2023. Taglang La will be the highest point we'll drive through, at around 5,300 meters above sea level.

The Rickshaw Run 🛺

The Rickshaw Run isn't about finishing first; the idea is that the one who comes last has experienced the most. There's no set route, and we won't receive any assistance along the way, so we'll have to rely entirely on ourselves.

We have no experience fixing rickshaws, but we hope that everything can be fixed with duct tape, zip ties, and rubber bands. So, what could go wrong?

Why Cool Earth? 🌱🌍

Rainforests are crucial for all life on Earth. According to the Norwegian Rainforest Foundation, the rainforest sequesters at least 1,000 billion tons of CO2, which is essential in combating the climate crisis.

We support Cool Earth, a non-governmental organization (NGO) that works to preserve the rainforest in collaboration with local communities. Their philosophy is based on the idea that local communities have the most to lose from rainforest destruction and the most to gain from protecting it, making them the best guardians.

All contributions, regardless of size, are received with eternal gratitude and will be fully allocated to Cool Earth. Please note that the registered offline donations on this site reflects the donations from Spleis.  

Thank you so much for your support!

Lots of love 🫶🏼

Michelle and Christian

Team Fehrari!
