Ride Cambodia 2014

Sometimes - you get a chance to make a difference.....and I have decided to take it. A once in a lifetime opportunity to help others and make a difference in their lives. I have been blessed to have a great wife and family, a great group of loyal friends, an opportunity to work at Computershare and the wonderful group of colleagues I am lucky to know there and my friends in NIRI, and our business partners who have been great to me.

Computershare is a sponsor of Sunrise Children's Village, and it sponsors one of the three orphanages they operate. You can read about Sunrise here. http://www.scv.org.au/about-us/

I am raising funds to support this orphanage. Computershare is paying for our travel expense, so all donations made on my behalf GO RIGHT TO HELPING THE CHILDREN. I can't save the world all by myself, but I can fight to help make a difference to some children who have been abandoned, have needs and need guidance, leadership and to be loved.....and work to put them on the path towards a future - to give them an OPPORTUNITY.

Please donate and help me on my way. We are riding about 300 miles in Cambodia and visiting the children. I will be posting here on a regular basis....and will be working with my colleagues to provide some other opportunities to participate for those who cannot make the trip with us. We will do fun events and help create a spirit of good global citizenship and together - we can make a difference. I will be your witness and promise to document how we - together - made a difference that helped CHANGE A LIFE.

I promise for those who follow my story - you will be impressed with the scope of our challenge....and you will be entertained by yours truly. This will be a fun experience and I invite you to join me and my team along the way ! Love you all - and Thanks in advance for your support !
