Ride for Change

I am Visma Raj Paudel, founder and director of Namaste Community Foundation (NCF) Nepal, and I am delighted to inform you that our “Ride for Change” fundraising campaign is going to start on 8th May 2020. I want to invite you to experience an unforgettable journey through Nepal. We will be exploring the beauty of the Himalayas, including the hidden kingdom (Lo Manthang) of Nepal. By joining this thrilling adventure, you will not only enjoy the culture of Nepal, but you will also be supporting a worthwhile social cause. 100% of the funds collected from this campaign will go solely towards the well-being of the children and youth supported under NCF-Nepal.

If you are not able to join us, I would like to ask you to help us in covering a portion of the cost of the bike ride. A few ways to support this fundraising event is by using social media, such as GoFundMe, Kickstarter, Crowdrise, Facebook Fundraising, etc. Also, please share this event among your family, friends, colleagues, relatives, etc. who might help raise funds for the organization.

I will be joining the ride and will be delighted to welcome you and anyone else interested in being part of this mega-adventure bike tour in the Himalayas of Nepal. I am anticipating your potential support concerning this campaign.
