Why Bicycles for Education
The Techbikers idea was born on the Google Campus in 2012 reaching out to the tech community to put down their laptops and pick up a bike. 40 riders, three days and 450 km - it's all about networking, sharing ideas, and most of all: creating social impact.
As entrepreneurs in the tech community we want to take responsibility and stand up for social change in the world. This year, the riders will enter new terrain: from the Baltic Sea to Berlin. We will give our best to conquer all challenges as a group and to raise funds for less fortunate people in the developing world.
Our goal is to raise 40,000 Euro for World Bicycle Relief to mobilize school children in rural Zambia with robust bicycles that give them access to education. Many of them have to walk long distances to school, they arrive late, not regularly and tired, if they make it to school at all.
Every 134 EUR donation provides one Buffalo Bicycle, 45 EUR are a toolkit for a mechanic. Every donation makes a difference!
