Pedaling Against Poaching finished out 2018 with a strong finish.
I personally completed 5520 miles, and the Pedaling Against Poaching Strava club topped out at over 125,000 miles!
I continue to see a steady organic growth to the number of followers and supporters.
I’m going to make the same commitment for my mileage for 2019. Riding the equivalent to the length of Africa from north to south.
We are starting off the year with some wonderful raffle prizes and local events to raise awareness and hopefully raise some much-needed funds
I plan on continuing to support the Zululand Rhino Orphanage and Transfrontier Africa.
I’m looking forward to an even bigger year in 2019 and am grateful to you for all you have done to make such amazing things happen on behalf of rhinos!
Hello All!
I’m glad to report that I’m on track for hitting 5400-5500 miles by the end of January. And the Pedaling Against Poaching Strava club has amazingly logged more than 100,000 miles year to date!
We were very happy to be able to transfer $3500 USD to the Zululand Orphanage in August, and we have more donations to send their way from our “orphan support October” campaign.
T shirt sales have been steady, with all proceeds becoming a donation through GlobalGiving.
My number of followers on instagram and Facebook has been growing steadily, and organically. We now have more than 3100 instagram followers.
I’ve definitely learned a lot over the past year, and I’m planning on taking what I’ve learned to make 2019 even better!
Greetings everyone! Many things have been happening in the last few months!
We had some amazing, handcrafted pieces of jewelry from an artist in the UK, that sold very quickly! And 100% of the sale was turned into a donation! We also had another handcrafted silver pendant, from an artist in the Seattle area that has a new home.. and 100% of the sale was turned into a donation.
Kevin Gonzales (Pedaling Against Poaching MN) built an amazing piece of wall art, from cedar and epoxy. We ran that one as a one week auction, for an incredible $350 donation!
My miles for the year are spot on, with over 3800 miles year to date.
The Strava club has logged a combined total of 75,778 miles!! Enough to circle the globe three times!!
And most importantly, we were very excited to be able to transfer $3,500 to the Zululand Rhino Orphanage!! They have some big plans to help these babies, and this money will be put to a very good use!
Best to you all!
