Hello everyone,
The 101 rickshaw project is to help people own there own rickshaw. If you did not know barely anyone has a rickshaw of their own. They rent their rickshaw from somebody. Then they do all the hard work to carry people around and take them to places for few amounts of money. Then by the end of the day you might think they earned a least a few dollars (or what ever their currency is), but no they have to pay the rent which takes a lot of the money they earned to the owner, for all we know could have been sleeping all day. Most drivers are very poor, like they barely pay there own self's and their family. They wake up early in the morning and come late in the evening. When are they going to spend time with there family? Your dad\mom are home during the weekend instead of at work. Your family makes good money, taken the fact that you are reading this on a computer. They can't afford a computer. They can't even get a nice, comfortable house. So please donate generously for the family of the rickshaw drivers. And if you need more facts read the book Rickshaw Girl which has first-hand account of a family of a Rickshaw driver.
