On an annual basis, The GEO Group Foundation supports the Ride 4 Orphans event hosted by Spanish River Church in Boca Raton. The mission of Ride 4 Orphans is to bring light and hope to orphans all over the world. Whether an individual is a cycling aficionado or just a casual rider, they have the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of orphans and children in foster care around the world and right here in our local Boca Raton community.
Event Director, Craig Kindell, had the following to say about this year’s Ride 4 Orphans event, “It is a privilege to be able to support Pothawira Village”, Malawi, a wonderful ministry founded by Pastor Peter Maseko (SRC church planter) and his daughter, Dr. Anne Alaniz. Dr. Alaniz is a gynecological oncologist who recently spoke at the Mobilizing Medical Missions conference in Houston, TX on the problems faced by women and children in Malawi.
Dr. Alaniz praised the organization in saying, “Thank you Craig Kindell and Ride 4 Orphans for everything you have done to support the work we do. The women and girls at Pothawira Academy are now getting an education in classrooms that are lit up with solar power from your generosity and the sewing program is thriving to ensure them a better and brighter future.”
This year’s Ride 4 Orphans initiative included organizing a solar power installation at Pothawira Academy a new secondary school for the children of Pothawira Village and surrounding community.
The GEO Group Foundation is proud to support Ride 4 Orphans, and we look forward to sponsoring future initiatives.
