8 Wheels for Kenya · 7 May 2009
8 wheels for kenya are: Rodolphe, Sam, Cosmo & Marc.
We are students cycling from Ampleforth College to Downside School (300 miles) in 4 days and aim to raise £5,000. We leave on June the 25th.This money will contribute to the construction of a polytechnic school in Kenya.
The total cost of the project, which will help up to 1,000 teenagers per year and for years to come, is only £45,000 (less than 2 years fees for a private school in the UK!). We are aiming to raise the 10% deposit required to lift this project off the ground and allow construction to begin.
Because of the lack of such facilities, only 2 or 3% of students continue their studies after primary school. By supporting us, you could help provide employment, education and a future for many people who aren't as privileged as us.

As we have been so privileged in our education, we strongly believe in this project which will enable others to access basic education & training.
Thank you for your support,
Rodolphe, Sam, Cosmo & Marc.
