Whenever a mega venture such as this Motorcycle Tour is planned the first question that arises is: Who will fund the mega venture?
This is when most expeditions fall apart. But we had made up our minds sponsors or no sponsors we would do the tour and saved a little every month from our modest earnings. As the saying goes "Little drops of rain water make a mighty ocean" we firmly believe that anything is possible with the support of like-minded individuals, corporates and NGOs to realise our dream.
Luckily for us we have come across some very generous and like minded corporates and individuals who wholeheartedly commited their support for our venture.
We attribute a large part of our success during this expedition to the supportive role of our sponsors and patrons. The driving force for the expedition is the synergy generated by our interactiosn with like minded organisations.
It is only thanks to these entities that our commitment and determination have got a meaning and value. In fact, the credit for spreading the message of Quality Education for All goes to our sponsors first and then to us.
Another factor is the rock solid and unstinting support of our family and friends. Their contributions in the form of moral support, advice, information etc.,
Our Sponsors
