This is an opportunity for you to DIRECTLY transform a child’s life.
Badge-A-Bike is a simple and special Gift Idea. It puts YOUR personal message on a bike you sponsor, which jole rider will ship and deliver to a school in West Africa. Once there, it will enable a child to get to school - on time, fresh and ready to learn. Your badged bike will end a child’s daily trek to school, walking for many hours in searing heat.
For so many children in Africa, a bicycle is the single most important thing to help them reach an education. There are schools, there are teachers, but too few - meaning thousands of children face long daily treks to school. For many that walk is simply too far!
Badge-A-Bike not only gets another child to school, it also connects YOU directly with their success.
Badge–A-Bike is a simple and special Gift Idea which can be used in different ways: a gift for you, to empower a child, in YOUR name a gift for a loved one, a friend or relative, in THEIR name a birthday, anniversary or Christmas gift a very special gift for a lost one – a lasting memorial to someone special
The gift of a bike includes: A bike being delivered to a child needing an education for their future YOUR personal message printed on a numbered badge we affix to that bike An invitation to jole rider’s Container Loading Day to see the bike loaded for Africa A photo of the bike being loaded A photo of the bike being handed over to the school Notification of the name of the school to which the bike will be delivered A letter from jole rider in Africa acknowledging the difference YOU have made
These are the children that, with an education, will become the future...
Doctors and Nurses Teachers and Educationalists Managers and Business people in the years ahead
In time, it is these children who will change their countries; they who will change their continent. Not us, but them. And with Badge-A-Bike we can do our bit to help them. And thanks to people just like YOU, we can do this - working together. Jon Snow
