Over 10 days this April, I will be joining the H2H (Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City) Charity Ride in Vietnam. I will be riding alongside my good friend Matt Wunderlich who has been teaching English to children in Vietnam for 3 years.

The H2H Charity Ride is a 2000km cycling ride that exists to help break the cycle of poverty in the lives of Vietnamese children by partnering with Saigon Children's Charity, which is a charity engaged in education, healthcare and vocational training programs in Vietnam. They help disadvantaged children in Vietnam receive a quality education by giving scholarships, building schools, running vocational programs in Saigon and also work with other, smaller organizations that focus on children with disabilities.

H2H is entirely run by volunteers, mainly English teachers based in Ho Chi Minh City. They are people whose lives have been enriched by living in Vietnam and want to give something back by helping those most in need. H2H was founded in 2009 and has so far held rides every year since then.

H2H's goal if for each rider to raise at least $1000 for Saigon Children's Charity! To that end, I am hoping that you will support me with a donation in any amount.  The ride will be entirely self-funded, so any money you donate will go directly to the charity.
