What: A Tour of Asia
I have embarked on a cycling tour which began in Irkutsk, Russia and will end in Bangkok, Thailand. I am cycling this route in order to raise money for anorganization that supportshealthcare and education in the Nepalese Himalayas, The Helambu Project. This is an act to try and raise awareness for basic human services in a remote region of the world.
Why: Fundraising for Helambu Project - Donate!
O ver the next few months I would like to raise $5,000 for the Helambu Project of Nepal, an organization I will be volunteering with this winter. This money will go directly to health and education projects organized by this wonderful non-profit. With your generous support we will meet our goal!
"Helambu Project works to create access to and improve the quality of education, health care, and life in Himalayan communities. They support community-level education and health care projects through the work of volunteers in the villages and by making small grants to village institutions."

Who:
My name is Jack McGee. Over the past few months I have : given a Tibetan woman a high five, hitched a ride in a Chinese police car with no paperwork to follow, galloped a Mongolian horse, and developed a scary rash on the front of my leg from sleeping in a $5 hotel room. I eat rice and drink a lot of Lipton's Tea not because I'm a health nut, but because they pack down so well!
