Francesco, our president, is about to get back in the saddle with Andrea, a loyal supporter of Isla ng Bata, to participate in the London to Brighton Bike Ride. In addition to supporting the fundraising initiative for children’s heart health, they will meet many people to raise awareness of Isla’s projects and ask for everyone’s support for our association’s mission. Come on, Andrea and Francesco!
The president of Isla ng Bata never stops, raising funds for the girls and boys we welcome is his mission and he knows no tiredness (or perhaps he prefers to ignore it). This is how this last minute undertaking was born, shared with one of our supporters and founders, Andrea: the London to Brighton Bike Ride 2025.
Francesco and Andrea will meet in Brighton on June 15th. On this occasion they will take part in the London to Brighton Bike Ride 2025 a charity ride in support of the British Heart Foundation, which raises funds for research into heart and cardiovascular diseases. Some of the children we have welcomed in Family Home in the Philippines have suffered or continue to suffer from problems of this type.
We believe that research is necessary to have more and more treatments available and we are happy to participate in this initiative that will have, for us, a double charitable purpose: our support for the cause (the registration fees for the race will go to support research) and, thanks to those who want to support us in this new charitable enterprise, concrete support for medical care for our children in the Family Home.
A single day of hospitalization in the Philippines can cost around €400 (about 25,400 Philippine pesos) and in these first months of 2025 it has been necessary to hospitalize some of our little ones for entire weeks, with very high health costs. We would like the right to care to be accessible to everyone, but in many countries in the world this is not the case.
You can support us in this new adventure from all over the world, donating here on GoFundMe.
Let’s set off on this new adventure together!
