Breaking the ‘cycle’ of poverty

By Opportunity International

Once again Opportunity International supporters donned their lycra to cycle the rigorous Trois Etapes – a 3 day team cycling race in the French Pyrenees in aid of hard working entrepreneurs living in poverty.  Two Opportunity International teams took part in the event which involved some of the toughest climbs of the Tour de France.  In total each team member climbed over 8,500 vertical metres over the three days.

An amazing £1 million was raised!  An incredible amount, which will help thousands or men and women gain training and loans that will support them in improving their business and providing food and education to their children.  

Well done team Opportunity!
