My story

 
NB. FOR THE RGS LECTURE, PLEASE SEE... www.justgiving.com/cycleoflife_rgs

We're cycling 5000 miles through Africa - it will take over 100 days.

How about sponsoring us £1 per day?    - £100
Or 1p per mile?   - £50
Or whatever you can!

By helping us you are helping to better the chances of people living throughout rural Africa. The Cycle of Life believes that African people deserve to be the masters of their own destinies. To achieve this we are working alongside communities to:

1. educate rural Africans so that they can make their own informed decisions;
2. demonstrate the value to the community of sustainable use of wildlife resources;
3. provide long-term stable support so that decisions are not rushed into.

Every penny donated through this website will be distributed to initiatives from Namibia to Kenya - initiatives in which the local community is proactive in finding and implementing development schemes that do not come at the cost of their natural resources.

Please see www.cycleoflife2008.com if you haven't already.
