Event: Spring 2010 Rickshaw Run

March 28, 2010

Welcome Rickshaw Runners!

A warm welcome to all those taking part in the Spring 2010 Rickshaw Run, Mercy Corps is once again delighted to be one of the beneficiary charities for this fantastic event. This Spring, the route will see brave explorers travelling in their Auto Rickshaws from Cochin in Kerala to Jaisalmer in Rajasthan.

The event is pretty simple with no preparation and less luggage participants fly to the Indian Subcontinent to force 150cc of Indian engineering over thousands of miles of questionable terrain in around two weeks. For more details on the event itself, visit the Adventurists website.

This Spring 2010 event is extremely exciting for Mercy Corps, as the participants will fully fund a brand new project working with rural farming communities in the village of Jasodapur, Orissa. For more information about this project Click here
