Rickshaw Running for Cool Earth
Tax deductible
Hey! It's us- Lindsey, Morgan and David. If we haven't already told you (seems unlikely to be honest), we are racing a rickshaw through Sri Lanka in March. And we can't do it without you! Usually the next question is something like-
Them: umm a rickshaw?
Us: Yes- but think tuk tuk.
Them: cool cool, so... why?
Us: 4 years ago globe-trotting Lindsey discovered this wicked cool opportunity to drive a tuk tuk across the island of Sri Lanka with The Adventurists. The only problem was that there was nobody crazy enough to join her. Enter Morgan. One call to David in CA and our team was complete.
Them: but what do you actually have to do?
Us: We are given a starting destination and finish line coordinates. The following 6 days are up to us! We learn how to fix tuk tuk wheels and engines, plot our general route, and strategize on how we avoid leopards and road blocks by elephants. Then, go!
You get the idea.
But before we join our fellow adventurists in Sri Lanka we are joining the charge in helping to fight climate change with Cool Earth- an organization that works with indigenous peoples and local communities to fight for climate justice.
We appreciate any donation to get us closer to our goal, but if you are interested in a bit more fun:
Option 1: Donate $15 to be added to our Instagram close friends list to see all the behind the scenes, nitty gritty, ins and outs of our journey
Option 2: Be the highest donor by the time we take off and we will call on you to make a decision for our route as some point during our trip. Take the left at the fork in the road? Visit the beach instead of the mountain? The choice is yours.
