Janet Lightley, the pedaling samaritan


Janet Lightley participated in the 2010 ABSA Cape Epic Mountain Bike Challenge. She saw the opportunity and used the event as a platform to raise funds for a charity organisation, called Miracle Kidz.

Miracle Kidz provides a safe and loving temporary home to abused, abandoned and neglected babies and children. In addition to feeding, clothing and attending to any medical requirements, Miracle Kidz introduces the children in their care to a family structure and prepares them for the future.

Janet, with the support of Wilde Fruit Juice, managed to raise approximately R 29 080 for the initiative. But this was only the beginning:

Janet Lightley and her team partner, Andrew Koen, will be participating in this year's ABSA Cape Epic once again, and this time they plan on raising even more awareness and funds for Miracle Kidz, than last year. We wish them the best of luck.

Help us support them. If you are interested in making a donation to Miracle Kids, visit them here for more details.
