Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit the R4C JustGiving page.

The Ride4Ceylon Team has its nucleus in a group of school friends from  Sri Lanka, now established among the Sri Lankan diaspora community overseas.

Passionate to support their troubled homeland, and to give Sri Lankan children of tomorrow the opportunities they had enjoyed, the friends – with other alumni, international friends and contacts – came up with the idea of a charity cycle ride from Kandy to Jaffna.

The cycle ride recreates the sport, fun and bonding that marks our connection, while also providing a visible means to attract support. Symbolically, by traversing the island from Colombo to the war-devastated north – it offers a journey of heart-rending beauty, healing and hope.

The R4C2024 organising committee would like to thank the brand ambassadors Dr. Pia De Girolamo, Dan Norton and Jen Orr and for their support.
