Raise money to donate to KidsCan to make a difference for Kiwi kids

Wellington

At the FFC Racing Team we know there are kids in our community that are not getting a fair crack at the basics in life.

Since riding bikes is what we love to do we are going to ride from Christchurch to Queenstown in order to raise money for Kiwi Kids who will benefit from our support.

To get a direct result for disadvantaged Kiwi Kids every dollar raised we will be donating to KidsCan.

As of today KidsCan supports over 18,000 hungry children a week with food insecurity. Their tangible programmes, Food for Kids, Shoes for Kids, Raincoats for Kids and Health for Kids concentrate on giving the basics directly to children in need in partnership with the schools they attend.

We will be riding 650 Km including 7,000 metres vertical climbing - a little bit of pain for us equals a great outcome for Kiwi kids in need.

Richard Pickering's involvement (page creator)

FFC racing team is committed to raising as much money as possible to directly benefit Kiwi Kids.

Our journey will enable Kids through the KidsCan charity to go to school and have the basics provided allowing them to be a kid and learn and become an even greater Kiwi Kid.

Stage 5 - Wanaka to Queenstown 23 March 2016

A little bit of pain for us cyclists to make life easier for a few kiwi kids.

Today we achieved the end of the FFC Ride for KidsCan by climbing two big mountains, Crown range summit, and the access road up to Coronet Peak. Both were really challenging climbs on the bike.

Thanks again everyone for your generous support towards the KidsCan cause. We're closing in on $150k, raised which is the amount required to make a difference to three schools, or about 750 kids. Much appreciated.
