Bicycles needed

Contact: Leon Vercueil on leon@in-home.co.za

We have received a request for Bicycles for a community that have challenges with public transport.

Barokologadi Tribe, comprise of 4 villages namely Pitsedisulejang, David Katnagel, Obakeng and Debrak and

is under the leadership of Chief Thari Maotwe.

These villages are situated in the Moses Kotane Region of the North West province, South Africa.

This community is faced by dire mobility challenges. The students are battling going to school with limited public

transport. The community is mainly a farming community having to walk a distance going to the cattle post. There are not many health care facilities and going

to the clinics and fetching water is a mission.

These people will benefit a lot from Bicycles for Humanity. It will be a welcome relief to many and a basic necessity to most of the students. If you can assist with

bicycles please contact Leon Vercueil.
