Personal message

Every year a team of dedicated, brave and passionate (some call them crazy too!!) people get on their bicycles and ride nearly 100kms to see CHANGE in our community. They ride to see future generations raised up and invested in. They ride to add value to their city. They ride and raise money for Botshabelo NGO…they are TRUE HEROES. They are the Purple Peloton!!

Each rider pledges to raise 3k for Botshabelo. 

Botshabelo is passionate about transforming children's lives through excellent education and residential care. They do this through caring for orphans and vulnerable children in their Babies Home, as well as through 2 education programmes. They also run a preschool for underprivileged children (94 kids in this school) and they train preschool teachers in the township of Olievenhoutbosch in order to empower and educate SA's next generation (reaching roughly 600 children through this programme).
