Team Singapore - R4S - Kyoto to Tokyo · 19 April 2016

Seeing is Believing is a global initiative to help eliminate avoidable blindness. We help bring affordable eye-care to some of the poorest communities in the world. We’re a collaboration between Standard Chartered Bank and the International Agency for Prevention of Blindness (IAPB).

Story

As some of you will know, I will be taking up the challenge of Ride for Sight 2016 - Kyoto to Tokyo

This is definitely going to be the toughest challenge we have ever done and we have been training hard since well before Christmas.

This is a self funded event.  The riders pay for all our logistic, food, flights and other expenses; therefore all your donations go directly to charity.

Some stats of the R4S 2016.

  • 4 days of riding from Kyoto to outskirts of Tokyo 
  • Covering around 500 kms
  • On Day 4 of the ride we will climb Mount Fuji
  • In total elevation gained for the 4 days will be in excess of 5000 meters. 

Please spare any amount that you are comfortable with and help me make a difference.

USD1 gives a child vitamin A protection for a year

USD16 buys a pair of spectacles

USD30 provides sight-restoring cataract surgery 

USD60 helps train one health worker 

USD120 funds pediatric cataract surgery

Many thanks,

James
