Fundraising for Cool Earth and Women's Refuge for the Rickshaw Run April 2019.
Nationwide
We are a group of friends (Rochelle Emmett, David Silcock, Yohann Irani, Holly Barrett, Emma Beattie, Marty Leigh, Tristan Tolley, & Claudia Silva) doing the Rickshaw Run in India in April 2019. This is a fundraising event for Cool Earth and Women's Refuge.
Below are links to more information about the chaos ensured in doing The Rickshaw Run (sorry mum):

Cool Earth is the partner charity to The Adventurists (who organise the Rickshaw Run) and they work alongside rainforest communities to halt deforestation. This work is very important to us in helping guarantee a future for us and our children that we want to live in. This charity is very successful in what it does and so far has:
SAVED ACRES 901,679
PROTECTED 216,402,960 TREES
STORED 234,436,540 TONNES OF CO2

Women's Refuge is our other charity of choice as it does a lot of good in local communities by helping domestic violence victims and promoting positive change all over NZ. Supporting a local charity alongside an international one is important to us so that we can reach a larger but also more intimate scope with the money we raise.
Below is a link to Women's Refuge for more info:
For Cool Earth we have a goal of 3000 NZD and whatever excess is donated will be given to Women's Refuge. This is because we are suppose to raise at least 1500 pounds (3000 NZD) for Cool Earth for the Rickshaw Run and then the excess goes to a charity of our choice.
In return for donations, we are putting on local gigs, movie nights, selling earrings and plants, and shaving their heads!

Women's Refuge and Cool Earth
New goal! 19 March 2019
Hi there supporters!
First of all, thank you so much to everyone who has donated. We nearly have $3000 so far! This is so impressive, and we can not say thank you enough to you all. Cool Earth and Women's Refuge are charities we hold close to our hearts and are so stoked to see these funds help them.
Update: We are changing our donation goal to $6000 because of an admin error within our team. Each Rickshaw Team is suppose to aim for $2000 each, and we have 3 teams doing the race and fundraising through the same Give A Little Link.
We are also extending our date for how long this page will be open for, for the the same admin error. Donations will now be able to be given until June 8th - 6 weeks after our race finishes. This is just to follow the Rickshaw Run guidelines that have been given to us.
Thank you all again!
