Dear kerry,

Apayisoge, a farmer,  lives in a rural village in northern Ghana. Thanks to your donation, Apayisoge received a bicycle and was taught how to take care of it!

Apayisoge’s 15 year old daughter is a student, and they will share the bike.  Their farm is 6 miles away and the school is 2 miles from their house. She will have her daughter use her bike to carry her produce, get where she needs to quickly, ride to the the farm on weekends.  In rural Africa, most people walk everywhere they go.  Apayisoge said, “My children did not want to help me but now that I have my own bicycle they will go anytime I need!” Owning a bike saves time and money, and makes life a lot more productive!

Apayisoge is very thankful for your donation, Kerry! Thanks for your support of the Village Bicycle Project!
