Personal message
This year I will be riding the Cape Town Cycle Tour with the Salesian Life Choices (SLC) team to raise funds for young people from the low-resourced communities of the Cape Flats to support their studies. Some of the Alumni from Leaders’ Quest (an intervention of SLC) struggles to support themselves during tertiary education. Some find it difficult to find money to register, others are denied residence and lack the money to travel each day and so on. SLC has a study emergency grant to assist the Alumni to avoid to dropout or to begin studying. This year I am aiming to assist to raise money for this fund.
I will be cycling 109 km on the day so I am asking supporters to sponsor me with at least R100p/km, and you can sponsor one or as many km as you like.
Supporters stand a chance to win A Cape Town Youth book filled with inspiring stories of youth.
