About

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page! In April 2014 we will be taking on a self-supported 4,000-mile cycle challenge across the United States taking us from Virginia on the east coast to Oregon on the west. This will take us through ten states, over two mountain ranges and will take around three months to complete. We'll be sharing updates about our travels so don't forget to visit our blog! www.pedaltramps.com. We would really like to use this challenge to raise some vital funds for ActionAid. ActionAid is an international charity which works to tackle poverty and protect human rights across the globe. They do crucial work for some of the most vulnerable people in the world by providing education opportunities for children in low income countries, supporting affected areas following emergencies and conflicts, helping communities to take action to protect women's rights and campaigning to end global hunger and poverty. You can find out more on the ActionAid website: www.actionaid.org. (We won't be using any of your donations to fund our trip. 100% will go to ActionAid). Heres a bonus! From 26 March to 25 June 2014 the UK government will match every pound you give and donate it to ActionAids 'She Can' appeal. So your donation will go twice as far to help women and girls escape poverty. For more information please visit: www.actionaid.org.uk/SheCan (If you make a donation without signing up to Givey then it will appear on our site as an anonymous donation. So please let us know if you donate this way because we would really like to thank you!).
