The two kids the team will be running and cycling 500km for are Sibiya's orphan neighbours in his hometown of Manguzi. He hopes to be able to sponsor their education for an entire year. "I have known the grandmother of the kids and the mother. The mother and I grew up together and she passed away last year," Sibiya shares. "So when I look at these kids, I remember my times as a child, I really had sort of the same setup," he continues.
I just want them to understand and to learn from me that it's really not about who you are or where you come from. It's about grabbing every opportunity.
Sibiya shares the how the fundraising will occur, where prospective, willing and interested donors can contribute and how everyone can track their journey.
