Fundraising to race the length of India (3,500km!!) over 2 weeks on a glorified lawn mower!

Auckland

Hello there!!!

You have just landed on the fundraising page of two nutjobs who are planning to race the length of India (3,500km!!) over 2 weeks on a glorified lawn mower, all in the name of good bants and authentic life experiences (the usual snowflake stuff!) - but most importantly to raise some well needed dosh for the COOL EARTH organisation!

We know that India is going to break our balls... push us to our wit's end and then a little bit further... put our bowels to the ultimate test... and make us question our relationship's very existence! So when we're driving a rickshaw through an Indian monsoon, dodging buses, bikes and cows... sporting adult nappies... regretting that street food curry we ate... and cursing the day we met one another... we want to be able to take solace in feeling like it was all worthwhile!!

And that's where YOU lot come in!!

In short, WE NEED YOUR MONEY HONEY!

You see the thing is, we might be jumping on a rickshaw and risking our lives and sanity for a few weeks but in general we have it pretty good... jobs, income, a roof over our heads, food on the table. But not everyone has these luxuries and that's why the COOL EARTH organisation is so important...

COOL EARTH work hard to protect the people of the Congo Basin, Amazon and Oceania whose whole world is at threat of being cut down and sold off through deforestation, leaving them homeless, jobless, foodless... and essentially poverty stricken.

COOL EARTH don't chain themselves to trees or throw money at big business in the hope that they'll go away, rather they educate and upskill the local people who live in these areas so that their communities can grow and prosper and then they won't NEED to sell their land to big businesses in order to make end's meet because they'll be able to stand on their own two feet and survive!

So while we sit here on our comfortable side of the world giving the odd thought to deforestation, its impact on global warming and how this MIGHT affect us, and instead let's spare a thought and some money for the people who it is affecting RIGHT NOW and let's help them out!
