Thank you all for your generous fundraising efforts!! Ride 2 Rescue has now funded 120 rescues of precious little children trapped in Indian brothels.

Ride2Rescue is a fundraising cycling event that raises money for Destiny Rescue, a non-profit organisation that rescues children from sexual slavery. Over the last three years, Ride 2 Rescue has raised over $100 000 which has set up and covered the running costs for two Destiny Rescue homes in Laos. These homes are for children who were being sold for sex in bars and brothels but had been rescued by Destiny Rescue. It’s inside these homes where the lives of beautiful children – broken, battered and bruised at the hands of wicked men and women – are lovingly restored, revived and rejuvenated by Destiny Rescue staff and volunteers.

Those houses are now financially sustainable so this year Ride 2 Rescue will support Destiny Rescue in India. Destiny Rescue has just began to work in India where there are tens of thousands of children trapped in sexual slavery.  All sponsorship donations are fully tax deductible and 100% of the funds raised will go directly to Destiny Rescue in India.

    If you would like to ride, sign up here! Then, share your fundraising page with family, friends and work colleagues to get sponsorship. If you'd also like to get cash donations see the post below on how to get a receipt book. All donations are fully tax deductible. The whole ride is on a designated bike path and is safe for riders of all ages and abilities. The ride starts and finishes at Pearce Reserve, Kings Langley. There will be different checkpoints along the path for first aid and refreshments and they will indicate when riders need to turn around. 

    • 25km riders   turn around near Richmond Road
    • 40km riders   turn around just after the M4 motorway
    • 60km riders   turn around just after Elizabeth Drive
    • 80km riders   go to the end of the bike path, then turn around.
