Fundraising for Calling Cape Town Challenge 2027
About Rafe Tayler
Not long ago this would’ve seemed like an impossible challenge for me. In fact, when I first heard about the race I said, “Those guys must be from a different planet…” Now, with a change in mindset, I’m viewing this as an opportunity. An opportunity to challenge myself, live life to the fullest, make friends, memories and help people in a way that has a lasting and meaningful impact. Bring on CCT 2027!!!
My story
The challenge of the race is for me to take on, but the funding is the important part. It is a very worthy cause: helping children in South Africa acquire an education they otherwise wouldn’t be able to afford. The other athletes and I are competing in this challenge as a means to help them hopefully one day achieve their calling, but to do so we must call on you first. Please lend a hand by donating what you are able to. Every little helps, even if it’s only R5. Thank you !!!
