I am raising money to support the ongoing work of Hands Across the Water because every child deserves to live a life of choice!

As many of you know, for the past several years I have participated in 5 charity bike rides. Traveling over 3,500km through Thailand. Raising over $25,000 to date. On 14 March 2020, having travelled 1,000km on a bike through some of the most beautiful landscape in Thailand I returned home to a different world, a world we no longer understood. Covid had reached our shore and we entered lock down.

Fast forward, how quickly we adapted and changed.

In January 2023 I will once again embark on a journey to support Hands Across the Water. This time cycling 800kms raising much needed funds to support 350+ children living in 7 homes and projects across Thailand. The charity started out addressing the needs of kids who didn't have homes or access to food, clothing, and medicine. Today, access to new and exciting opportunities for the kids is just as important as a loving home and a belly full of healthy food.

With New Year fast approaching, restrictions now lifted, and we embrace the joy of coming together after years of separation. Let's remember those who through circumstances out of their control have created a new family through the support of Hands Across the Water.

Your donation will help provide a high standard of care, a chance at a better education and a future that they never envisioned.

Dig deep make a donation that can provide a better future. Every dollar counts

With Love Mary

For those who want to follow my riding journey and see how their donation is utilized please connect with me on Facebook. I look forward to sharing daily updates with you, hoping this will entice you to join me next year.

You will then understand where my smile comes from, life is never the same.
