Why We Ride
Kids Across Cultures and Dublin Dr Pepper care about kids. If you rode the “Pepper” last year, know that you made a difference in this world. Proceeds from last years ride had far reaching impact! Kids Across Cultures, along with your help, was able to rebuild a school and support a national teacher in a remote village of Southeast Asia, sending scores of impoverished children back to school for the first time in years. Clean water was brought to hundreds of children and their families in two different villages in China. And hundreds of treated mosquito nets were bought and distributed to a village in Zanzibar, East Africa, as part of a malaria prevention campaign. By riding the Tour de Pepper you become part of a cycle of change! Check out kidsacrosscultures.com.
