Story

Richard will be cycling 300 km over 3 days.

Each $25 raised will educate one child for one month.

Please scroll down for payment options.

The difference an educated child can make to their community by breaking the cycle of poverty is immense. Imagine the difference we can make: every US$300 (VND7,500,000) raised pays for one child's education for one year. Just US$25 (VND650,000) takes a child off the streets and into school for a month.

No amount is too small; the difference your donation can make for the children we support has a lifelong impact. These children would otherwise miss their education and the opportunities this creates for them and their families. Please help me keep them in school!

I will be riding 300km over three days between Dalat and Phan Rang in March 2024. The scenery is stunning, but it will be an exhausting and painful 300km ride with steep climbs. So please sponsor me onwards and upwards over the mountains. Please help me help these children.

Please skip a meal out this week and use that money to sponsor us. You can donate by credit card here. I've included an alternate method direct to the charity below.

All the money raised goes to the Saigon Children’s Charity and funds education (scholarships and schools) for underprivileged children. Saigon Children has helped over 300,000 children attend school and built 233 schools in ten provinces across Vietnam. It is a reputable charity celebrating 30 years in Vietnam in 2022, which I have known personally since 1997.

Thanks so much.
