[Ride for a Purpose] Ride for Thusanani Children's Foundation

The campaign provides cyclists and organisations with a platform to fundraise for causes close to their hearts.

"This is the first year that The Glen Shopping Centre is riding for Thusanani's cause. In 2013, Thusanani's charity bond raised R150,000 and we'd like to double that this year," says Jo Binks at Thusanani Children's Foundation.

The Glen Shopping Centre supports the essential and unique services that Thusanani provides to vulnerable and marginalised children living in temporary safe care facilities across Gauteng. They have been supporting Thusanani since 2006, and their funding and support allows Thusanani to provide proficient developmental and medical assessments and reports to support the adoption process of orphans and vulnerable children.

"The Glen Shopping Centre is challenging all individuals and companies in the southern Johannesburg area to 'ride for Thusanani's cause' and join the centre in riding the Momentum 94.7 Cycle Challenge for a purpose," says Dean Mybugh, Marketing Manager at The Glen Shopping Centre.

Those wanting to ride for Thusanani's charity bond can register and pay online at www.cyclechallenge.co.za. It costs R350 which includes a branded cycling jersey.
