Drive For The Rainforests

Donation protected
On the 24th of December 2018 i’ll be heading to India to undertake an adventure of a lifetime to raise money for Cool Earth. The adventure is simple; Traverse the country of India with no support or set route in a 3 wheeled, 7 horsepower glorified lawnmower (commonly known as a "Tuk Tuk")... all while trying to stay alive!

One of these!! 


WHAT DOES YOUR MONEY GO TOWARDS?

Cool Earth is a Non-Profit Organisation that works alongside indigenous communities to halt deforestation and its impact on Climate Change. By improving the quality of life for these local communities and by providing the people with resources it enables them to protect their surrounding forests from threats such as commercial logging, commercial agriculture and extractive industries.

Although we may not feel the effects of climate change in our day to day lives, it is affecting us all and we need to do our part to save this beautiful earth of ours.


ABOUT THE RUN

Our goal is to drive from Bangalore to Jaisalmer within two weeks (hopefully). The journey will take us along the west-Indian coast and through some amazing cities and landscapes. 



Rickshaws are considered an engineering marvel, but most certainly not reliable. There will be breakdowns, there will be flat tyres, there will be flat batteries, there will be *oh shit* moments, there will be traffic, probably no clutch and more importantly there will be no giving up!

So far, there is only one plan – head North. Planning anything further is almost impossible because who knows where we will breakdown each day.  The only thing we know for sure is that  we'll be out of our comfort zone 24/7 and it wont be a walk in the park.


Any generosity you may be able to offer would be greatly appreciated!
