Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page. Current   The Rickshawalas!  www.rickshawalas.com A few members of the Care Youth Team are carrying out a crazy and daring adventure, to drive rickshaws across India, this challenge is due to take place next year, March 2012.   <p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-left: 0px; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; padding: 0px; border: 0px initial initial;">We would start at the CARE centre in Navchetan in Bhuj and travel to Manali, where there is a school in the mountains, which desperately require assistance. The entire journey would take approximately 12-14 days, this expedition would be undertaken solely by rickshaw. <p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-left: 0px; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; padding: 0px; border: 0px initial initial;">Along our journey we are planning to stop at various CARE Centres that lie on our route. We want to spend a little time with the children there and simultaneously film and document the work that is carried out. This footage would then be compiled into a short documentary. <p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-left: 0px; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; padding: 0px; border: 0px initial initial;">We would really appreciate your help, our proceeds are going towards the Buddist Cultural School, in Manali, where these children are in need of your help. <p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-left: 0px; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; padding: 0px; border: 0px initial initial;">www.rickshawalas.com Recent events:   Charity EU Road Trip & Bungee Jump - Nirav & Jubhair  On September 10th both of us will be embarking on a road trip around Europe for 3 weeks to raise money.
