The first charity I have chosen to fundraise for is
Re-Cycle – Bicycle Aid for Africa

They are a fantastic UK charity that collects second hand bikes and parts and ships them to Africa where partners teach local people how to repair and maintain them. Which in turn helps them to improve their own lives in a sustainable manner. Bikes give families the extra time to earn, learn and enjoy life.
