As you may be aware Apteco is full of keen cyclists and this year six of us are getting on our bikes to support the Buwan Kothi International Trust. We will be cycling 55 miles from Oxford to Leamington on the 20th of July and would appreciate any sponsorship for this worthy cause. Buwan Kothi is a small village in Haryana, India which desperately needs help with basic healthcare and education.
Last year, the Buwan Kothi Challenge was to ride 58 miles from Bethnal Green in London to Priory Park in Southend-on-Sea. Incredibly, the 26 riders who took part managed to raise a staggering £20,696.04 towards the construction of the Gilly Mundy Memorial Community School. Thanks to their efforts, the school opened in March 2008.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Buwan Kothi International Trust will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
This year, we hope to raise more money for the next phase of the project - to build a community resource centre that includes a library, a doctor's surgery and meeting spaces for local people.
