Personal message
This will be my second Cape Town Cycle Tour, and I am privileged to be riding for a child in need. Children are important, and I believe that we need to provide our children with as much support as possible.
My little buddy's name is Seth, who is faced with the challenges of Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD), which is permanent brain damage caused by prenatal exposure to alcohol.
Seth unfortunately still wears nappies; however, he is making fantastic progress in becoming independent in his bathroom activities.
He enjoys being around people and playing with his talking Tom toy. Seth is a sweet child but needs extra care due to the severity of his brain damage.
Reaching my target will mean actively making a difference in Seth's life.
My goal is to raise R12000.00 to help with his medical bills and school fees.
