Willow Wheelers Charity Cycle 2020
Donation protected
Over the past few years, the Willow Wheelers have raised over €2 million in support of water, health and education projects in Africa, Brazil and Vietnam. Much of the funding for these projects comes from the annual 100-mile cycle. This year, it was not possible to do the 31st 100-mile due to Covid-19.
Instead, a group of us sixth years (Dan Casey, Harry Francis, Tom Guinevan, Tom O'Connor, Jonathan O'Neill and Peter Spellman) and some of our parents will cycle over 100 km on June 21st to raise vital funds for developing world communities aided by the Wheelers. We'll be doing the spin abiding by Phase 2 of government restrictions.
The majority of us have visited people in Ethiopia and Brazil who benefit from the support of the Willow Wheelers and kind donors like you. Many of those whom we met are in dire need of access to education, water or health services. This is true now more than ever as the Covid-19 pandemic impacts the developing world in ways that we cannot imagine.

We, and those who the Wheelers support all over the globe, would greatly appreciate any donation you can make.
Thank you.
Stay well.
