Story

English version below

Wusstest du, wenn jedes Kind eine grundlegende Bildung erhalten würde, 170 Millionen Menschen nicht mehr in Armut leben müssten?

Im September lasse ich meinen Laptop Zuhause und setze mich auf mein Rennrad. Mit über 50 anderen Fahrern von TechBikers fahre ich über 300km von Kopenhagen nach Berlin - alles um Geld für die gemeinnützige Organisation Room to Read zu sammeln.

Unterstütze mich mit egal welchem Betrag

Warum? Um ein Anliegen zu unterstützen, an das ich glaube: Kindern den Zugang zu Bildung ermöglichen.

Lese- und Schreibfähigkeit bei Kindern zu fördern ist einer der besten Wege um Armut zu bekämpfen.

Wohin geht meine Spende?

100% deiner Spende geht direkt an die gemeinnützige Organisation Room to Read. Unabhängige Organisationen wie der Charity Navigator haben Room to Read bereits ausgezeichnet. Das Geld wird verwendet um Schulen oder Bibliotheken in der Dritten Welt wie Nepal oder Tansania aufzubauen. Das Geld geht dorthin wo der Bedarf am größten ist.

Was ist TechBikers?

TechBikers begann 2012 in London und organisierte für Leute aus der Startup Welt Fahrradtouren um einen guten Zweck zu unterstützen. Das Ziel ist Kindern in Not zu helfen indem Spenden für die gemeinnützige Organisation Room to Read gesammelt werden. Seit 2012 sind über 350 Leute 1600km zwischen Paris und London gefahren um über 300,000 Euro zu sammeln. Dieses Jahr startet TechBikers auch internationale Touren, wie diese von Kopenhagen nach Berlin.

Did you know that if every child received an education, 170 million people would be lifted out of poverty?

In September, I will drop my laptop and get on a bike, cycling over 300km with 50 other riders from Copenhagen to Berlin with TechBikers - all to raise money for Room to Read!

Please support me with however much you can give.

Why? To support Room to Read's work on a cause I strongly believe in: providing children with an education.

Focusing on childhood literacy is one of the most effective ways to improve living standards across the globe.

WHERE WILL MY DONATION GO?

All your donations will go straight to Room to Read, who have received the coveted Four Star Rating from Charity Navigator nine(!) years in a row. Funds will be used to build schools or libraries in developing countries such as Nepal or Tanzania. Funds go where the need is greatest.

WHAT'S TECHBIKERS?

In 2012 TechBikers launched in London as a means for the tech community to put down their laptops and pick up a bike to support charity, network and share ideas. The goal is to help children in need by supporting literacy charity Room to Read. Since 2012 over 350 tech professionals – including start-ups, venture capitalists and executives – have cycled 1600km between Paris to London to raise over € 300.000 for this fantastic charity.

This year, TechBikers is going international with rides across central and Eastern Europe.
