Soroti Cyclists

Tomorrow is the Ride for Refuge!  There is a group of us riding here in Soroti a few hours before the rides that will be taking place in the states. We are planning on doing about 40K and though the bikes are different, the roads are different and our after ride meal is sure to be different we will be doing it for all the same reasons. We want to raise awareness and funds for:
· the TRAUMATIZED Ugandans who were abducted by the Lord’s Resistance Army rebels to be hard-laborers, soldiers and sex-slaves, and their families
· the unreached KARAMOJONG tribe who have been displaced and forced to live in camps by inter-clan fighting and by severe drought, famine and starvation
· ORPHANS and VULNERABLE CHILDREN who are neglected by their family, relatives and communities

It isn't too late to sign up if you want to be part of this! You can ride or donate. Just go to Ride for Refuge- Grand Rapids Our team is called the Soroti Cyclists.
 
Pictures of our ride will be posted shortly....
