We advocate for street children to ensure they can reach their potential

Story

Four friends who met in Seoul in 1979 (i.e. 45 years ago) have decided for reasons lost in the mists of short-term memory to cycle 400 miles from Seoul to Busan.

This was not a fundraising event but my reputation is so appalling that the first two people I told about this asked where they could find the fundraising page. Extraordinarily (and this is true), when I said there wasn't one, they said I should set one up. So this is for them and anyone else kind or crazy enough to fork out again - and for the street children like those who Robyn and I met with Babu in Kolkata last month to whom the proceeds will be sent via CSC (into which StreetInvest merged a couple of years ago).

Thank you to everyone who does contribute and/or has contributed so much in the past, Duncan (and Kim, Bill and Pete)
