Bicycles needed
Contact: LeonVercueil on leon@in-home.co.za
We have received a request for Bicycles for a community
that have challenges with public transport.
Barokologadi Tribe, comprise of 4 villages namely
Pitsedisulejang, David Katnagel, Obakeng and Debrak and
is under the leadership of ChiefThari Maotwe.
These villages are situated in the Moses Kotane Region
of the North West province, South Africa.
This community is faced by dire mobility challenges.The
students are battling going to school with limited public
transport.The community is mainly a farming
community having to walk a distance going to the cattle
post.There are not many health care facilities and going
to the clinics and fetching water is a mission.
These people will benefit a lot from Bicycles for
Humanity. It will be a welcome relief to many and a basic
necessity to most of the students. If you can assist with
bicycles please contact LeonVercueil.
