Story

<p><strong>Across America Bike For Burundi</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Hey All,</p> <p>Thanks for checking out my Justgiving page. So here is the story. I am joining a group of friends out here in the States who are cycling from one side of the country to the other. To be precise they will be cycling from California to South Carolina. Now I am not riding the whole journey with them, I will be joining them in Alabama and cycling the last 700+ miles with them.</p> <p>The charity we are raising for is called GLO (Great Lakes Outreach) which works in Burundi amongst some of the poorest and most desperate people in the world. They have experienced civil wars, genocides and famine in recent years which has left the country in a still desperate state. Please if it is on your heart to do, give generously to this charity, your money will definitely be making a difference to many lives.</p> <p>The guy who started the ministry GLO will be cycling the entire journey. You can check out his blog page at <span style="color: #0000ff;">www.simonguillebaud.com</span> or check out the official Bike For Burundi home page at <span style="color: #0000ff;">www.bikeforburundi.com</span>. He has some incredible stories of what God has been doing out in Burundi that have certainly inspired me and I am sure many more.</p> <p>If you would like to give, then follow the Justgiving instructions.</p> <p>(Here is Justgiving's little spiel)</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>OK guy and girls, it's over to you. I look forward to telling you how it all went.</p> <p>P.s I am also running an Ironman. You can check out my blog at <span style="color: #0000ff;">hadrianhobbs.wordpress.com</span> to follow my training before the big day.</p>
