🚗 Miles for Lives – A Journey Across India, A Mission Beyond Borders 🇮🇳🇮🇪

Driving from Kashmir to Kanyakumari to Fuel the Fight Against Cancer

This September, four friends – united by purpose and driven by compassion – are hitting the road for an epic adventure: a 7,000+ km road trip across India, from the snow-capped peaks of Kashmir to the sun-drenched shores of Kanyakumari.

But this isn’t just a road trip.

This is Miles for Lives.

We’re doing this to raise funds and awareness for the Irish Cancer Society, an organization that touches thousands of lives every year through cancer research, patient support, palliative care, and prevention programs.

💛 Why Are We Doing This?

Cancer doesn’t stop at borders. It impacts families and individuals everywhere – in Ireland, in India, and across the world. We’ve all seen the toll it takes. Some of us have lost loved ones. Others continue to witness the daily battles fought in silence and strength.

So we’re turning our journey into a mission – to show that distance means nothing when it comes to love, support, and hope.

🌏 What’s the Journey?

From Srinagar’s valleys to the Himalayan heights of Leh, through deserts, jungles, cities and coastlines, we will traverse 25 iconic destinations over 25 days.

This road will test us, thrill us, and most importantly, unite us – not just as travelers, but as messengers of hope.

🙌 How Can You Help?

Every euro you donate will go directly to the Irish Cancer Society, helping to fund:

• Life-saving cancer research

• Free support services for patients and families

• Critical information and advocacy work

• Community and palliative care programs

Whether you donate €5 or €500, you’re part of this journey.

You’re part of the impact.

You’re helping us turn Miles into Lives.
