In our last newsletter we reported that we needed 20 more bicycles to "Fill the Truck" and make another bicycle delivery. We are happy to report that we have met that goal and are scheduled to deliver 31 bicycles in November!
This support could not have come at a better time! Students have just recently returned to school, and so for those students in the secondary level, they now will have transportation and do not have to worry about walking such long distances to stay in school.
We wish to thank our donors who made this upcoming bicycle delivery possible, and for helping the recipient students be able to continue their education. We are very grateful for having met this particiular goal.
However, our annual goal is to distribute a minimum of 100 bicycles to students who have gone into the secondary level of school. We are only 8 bicycles short of reaching this annual goal of 100 bicycles. And as we have noted before, when the truck is full, we make a delivery.
Your support is critical to making a life changing impact on students who still need a bicycle. We hope you will join us in not only meeting our annual goal with 8 more bicycles, but the continuing goal of filling another truck! A bicycle is only $55 and makes a huge difference in the life of a student and his/her family.
Without your continued support, rural students may simply drop out of school because they have too far to walk.
Thanks to everyone who has contributed to this educational effort.
