Starting World Cancer Day - Feb 4 to March 10, over a thousand cyclists across India have collectively cycled 400,000+ kms as part of the #cycleforgold challenge benefiting children with cancer.
One km for each child fighting cancer somewhere in the world each year.
How can you help? Each one of us knows about at least one person in our friend, family, alumni, office and extended circles who are struggling with Cancer and fighting for survival - physically, mentally and monetarily.
Our cause, is Children With Cancer, (some as young as 3 to 6 months all the way to 18 years) who are victims of the dreaded disease. A majority of them coming from underprivileged families. In fact, of the 4,00,000 children worldwide diagnosed yearly, 80,000 are from India.
As riders #cycleforgold across India, raising much needed funds, your contribution shall assist in supporting childhood cancer patients and their families. Make a contribution for every kilometer cycled --- @ Rs 100 per km.
Rs 1000 for 10 kms
Rs 5000 for 50 kms
Rs 10000 for 100 kms
Rs 100000 for 10000 kms
Because You Can.
