$5,264 donated
Given by 62 generous donors in around 4 months

We are riding the length of NZ as part of Tour Aotearoa to raise money to rebuild schools in Nepal.

Otago

On February the 23rd my friend Bernie and I will start our journey down the length of the country from Cape Reinga to Bluff as part of Tour Aotearoa.

We are both involved in education and know the value of learning, it is this belief that leads us to want to make a difference for the children of Nepal.

As a result of the 2015 earthquake several schools in the Khumbu region that the Trust supports were destroyed or badly damaged.

Through our journey we hope to raise funds for the Rebuild Project for the Himalayan Trust and give these children back a place to learn.

It is thanks to the support of our friends, family and the generosity of our employers that we are able to undertake this challenge.

Please find it in your heart to give so that these children can rebuild their dreams.
