Hello,
As the famous Tibetan proverb says, “A child without education is like a bird without wings.” In an effort to support the education of kids who are eager to get education but lack the necessary resources, I have been training since February 2023 to complete a bicycle ride from Seattle to Portland (STP-2023).
STP, or the Seattle to Portland ride, is scheduled for July 15 – 16th this year that includes 206 mile ride with an elevation gain of ~ 5100 feet.
My goal for the STP ride is not only to raise funds for kids in need of educational resources, but also to raise awareness of the charitable organization ‘Asha for Education.’ This organization’s mission is to provide basic education to underprivileged children throughout India. Asha is also helping local communities combat the perils of illiteracy and poverty by providing them with the tools for empowerment.
How can you help? Take the step to support “Asha for Education” by helping me reach my fundraising goal amount. Every dollar you donate will go a long way in making a incredible impact on the lives of underprivileged children.
Today there are many organizations for us to choose from to donate our hard-earned dollars, so Why choose Asha for Education?
Besides their noble cause and work at the grass root levels, Asha is a “minimal overhead” organization, driven by volunteers (including the administrative expenses) ensuring that more than 95% of our donations are sent to their partner groups in India. Asha for Education has consistently secured a 100% rating on Charity Navigator, a well-established database that evaluates non-profit organizations on the basis of transparency, accountability and financial parameters Click here to learn more about the projects supported by the Asha Seattle chapter, all over India!
Thank you for your time and your donation!
Note that Asha is a registered 501(c) organization, and all donations are tax-deductible
