South Africa Cycle Challenge 2013
Are you ready for the adventure of a lifetime? Join GVN Foundation's Executive Director in South Africa from September 26th - October 7th, 2013.
The challenge?
Cycle over 400 miles through the valleys, over the hills and through the vineyards of South Africa.
The reason?
To raise funds for the Kliptown Youth Program, a community center run by Thulani Madondo, a CNN hero from Soweto.
At the end of the cycle challenge, we will visit the center and meet the kids benefiting from the funds raised.
