Dear Contributor: I am so pleased to hear that this wonderful project, Bicycles for Poor Students in India will be able to participate in the competition for recognition by the prestigious Tech Museum Awards organization, as an example of applied technology benefiting humanity in the education category.
The innovative use of bicycles, an often overlooked technology that revolutionized individual and environmentally friendly mass transport in human history, is now significantly improving access to education for poor students in India who otherwise could not go to school.
Knowing first hand that the Bicycles Project, India, has demonstrated results and needs fresh funding to be replicated in other schools, I strongly and warmly support its funding as many have generously done so far. It can and will continue to make a great difference in the life of boys and girls and their families and local communities that are still in great need after the tragic tsunami just a few years ago.
Rebuilding takes time but is worth the efforts, especially when it helps enable young people to further their education and build for the future.
Thank you for your consideration of this important GlobalGiving funding request.
Sincerely yours, Mary Levering
