CHAIN REACTION: Ride Across America
CHAIN REACTION: Ride Across America is a charity ride with the goal of fundraising for education access in North-Eastern India.
The ride starts from the famous San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge and end in our nation's capital Washington D.C. The total estimated length of the trip is over 3400 miles! On the way, we will ride through many other grand landmarks across the USA, including the Sierra Mountains, Salt Lake City, the St. Louis Gateway Arch, and many others!
Our fundraising goal is $100,000 which will all go to expanding educational opportunities in North-Eastern India, in partnership with Fanwar Foundation.

Our Cause
In the remote village where we plan to build, there is no school within a 20 km radius. Most families in the area live below the poverty line and cannot afford vehicles. If they manage to gather enough money, they send their children to distant boarding schools, separating them from their families at a very young age. This journey aims to change that. Funds will be used in the following ways:
Construction
Building classrooms, power infrastructure, sewage systems, and setting up Wi-Fi.
Staff Support
Providing stipends for dedicated staff members who are giving back to the community after completing their education through the Fanwar Faith Inc Sponsorship. These individuals are passionate about making a difference and are excited to serve their community.
