We are Rikki Tikki Taxi. We roll united as three inspired men in the
spirit of the mongoose. 2 of us brothers, all of us lovers, we chase
true happiness through real experience, the beat of a drum and the smell
of a 2 stroke engine.
Rikki Tikki Taxi is set to embark on a
5000km voyage through mountainous Nepal and the Indian subcontinent. Our
sole mode of transport, a 145cc, 2 stroke, single cylinder, 7 horse
power Indian Auto Rickshaw.
The point to all of this? To get a
taste of true adventure and more importantly to raise money for Frank
Water, a sustainable, community run, clean water project to supply clean
drinking water to the people of India.
FRANK Water was founded by
Katie Alcott in 2005, after she visited India and contracted dysentery
after drinking dirty water. Coming back to the UK she realised that by
selling ethical bottled water she could use the profits to fund new
clean water facilities for villages in need.
In a world where more
than 4,000 children die EVERY DAY from a lack of clean drinking water,
it’s clear that help is urgently needed.
Your donation will help us
reach our goal of raising £1000 ($1800), ALL of which goes directly to
Frank Water Projects and to the people of India who need it most - all
other expenses i.e. flights, accommodation etc. are covered by us.
Whilst this is our target, we would be stoked to go above and beyond
this amount.
Unfortunately, for most of you, donations must be made
in Pounds Sterling however to make it easy for you we have put the
latest conversion rates below. We will update these weekly.
$10 =
£5.60
$20 = £11.20
$30 = £17
$50 = £28.30
$100 = £50.60
$1800
= £1000
Thanks for supporting this great cause and keep an eye on
our site
for regular updates and photos.
May the Rikki Tikki Taxi be with
you.
Peace and Love,
Billy Grantley, Andy Clifford &
Jonathan Clifford
