Hey there! My name is Noah - I'm 25 years old from Minneapolis, United States and am embarking on a transnational bike ride from Vancouver, Canada to Tijuana, Mexico along the Pacific Coast of the United States. On 15 September 2025, I'm going to strap my life to my bike for a little over a month and hit the road(after a few sleeps on the train from Minneapolis to Vancouver), doing my best to increase interest in effective giving while raising money in support of an outstanding organization: the Helen Keller International Vitamin A Supplementation Program - dedicated to preventing children from suffering blindness followed by death due to vitamin A deficiency by providing crucial nutritional supplements, leading to a ~4% - 12% reduction in childhood mortality, depending on location.

It costs just a little over a dollar to provide a dose of Vitamin A, and you only need two doses a year to protect against these debilitating deficiencies. If we raise $2.50 for every mile I ride, we could deliver a full, yearly course of Vitamin A supplementation to 2500 children!

This will easily be the most challenging athletic feat I've taken on, and would love any and all support & generosity!! Thanks, all <3
