Campaign Story
The most Rural Areas of South Africa house the poorest of the poor among us. Due to this, they do not have bicycles and as a result - do not know how to ride them. Schooling is also available, however, the children walk on average around 15km (one way) every single day to attend school.
AfriKarma would like to approach schools, supply bicycles, and teach the children how to ride bicycles. Upon completion of this bike license, the children who endured will receive their very own bicycle.
We believe that this initiative would not only encourage them to attend schools but also to then earn a bicycle and a bicycle license which in turn would encourage more to join the next intake etc. Ultimately, we would be creating employment, providing means of transport, and encouraging education.
Please help us fund this initiative as we would really love to expand school by school, area by area throughout our amazing country.
