The adventure begins!


Three of us, from around the globe - Shruti, Matt and I[Steve] - have decided to kick off 2017 with an adventure and in the process, do something different to raise money for underprivileged children in India. We are avid cyclists, or at least try to be ☺, and have planned a trip that will have us riding down the south east coast of India, by bicycle, from Puducherry to Kanyakumari from Jan 16th - 27th .


After researching many organizations and orphanages we decided to partner with the organization called Bhumi due to their reputation, their focus on improving children’s lives and from speaking to the cofounder of the organization.

We would be grateful for any contribution you can make to support the campaign “Sponsor the education of a child in need”. Contributing through LetzChange is safe and ensures that 100% of the amount directly reaches the cause/organization. Here’s a video about the charity we’re supporting: https://www.youtube.com/embed/cmLDiAu-CN0 Our trip is fully self funded and all of the money you donate at this time will be transferred to and used to care for these children. Any amount of donation will go a long way in the lives of these disadvantaged children. Your help will be invaluable in touching these children's lives.
