AHCT Fundraising.
This annual ride started 10 years ago to raise funds and awareness for Andean Health’s healthcare work in rural Ecuador and has since raised $3 million! Please help us in any way you can to spread the word. Email templates to send to friends/family and more fundraising info is available here. I will add your team name to our donate page‘s dropdown menu. We’ve already raised $132,950 toward our $500,000 goal from cyclists asking their friends and family for gifts or donating themselves. Huge thanks!
