Hi, my name is Johan and im riding the Telkom 947 Cycle Challange for an amazing cause. We've joined the #PurplePeloton in raising funds for an amazing organisation, Botshabelo (more on Botshabelo below) Help this amazing cause by helping us reach our fundraising target.
"Botshabelo was born, 14 years ago, out of a burning passion for the community and its desperate need for a place of safety, support and resources. The Babies Home, Urban Kids Educentre and offices are located on the 20 acre property of 64 on Main, Midrand. From this base we serve the community of Olievenhoutbosch and surrounds through our Early Childhood Development programme. Botshabelo is passionate about transforming children’s lives through excellent education and residential care." Find out more about Botshabelo at www.botshabelo.co.za
