Story
Hello and thank you for visiting our fundraising page.As you may, or may not, know by now, we have entered into the mighty Rickshaw Run - a 2000 mile trip across India in order to raise money for charity.What's this all about then?The Rickshaw Run is pretty simple. To drive from to Pokhara (Nepal) in an auto rickshaw in just less than two weeks. For a taster of what we've let ourselves in for have a look at the video on the left.The MachineThree wheels, half a horse power and more fun than any other vehicle on planet earth the humble Rickshaw is undoubtedly the ultimate long distance, off road machine, despite being designed for short distances on road.The CharitiesThe Rickshaw Run is all about raising huge amounts of wedge for a great cause or two, so each team has to raise a measly £1000 for charity.Yes it will be fun. Yes it will be dangerous. Yes it will be exciting. But it will be worthless if we can’t raise money at the same time.Where does my money go?
Direct to the charity. We will be paying for, or sourcing alternative funding, for costs ourselves (flights, entry fee, etc.) so any money donated via this site will go to Frank Water Projects.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Frank Water Projects gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
Frank Water sets up sustainable, community-owned clean water projects in some of the poorest communities in India and Nepal.
