KARACHI: More than 300 dedicated cyclists pedalled through the streets of Karachi to support The Citizens Foundation (TCF) in its annual event, ‘Cycle for Change’. This year, a cycling group from Islamabad also participated, said a press release issued after the event. Cyclists from various parts of Karachi gathered at the TCF School Shirin Sultan Dossa Campus in Qayyumabad to promote the cause of education. The event has been conducted annually since 2021 by the dedicated Supporters of TCF (STCF). “The commitment demonstrated by STCF and the leading cycling groups of Karachi in raising awareness and funds for educational initiatives through Cycle for Change is truly commendable. These annual events not only emphasize the importance of education but also unite the community in support of this noble cause,” said Mazhar Valjee, a devoted cyclist from Critical Mass Karachi (CMK). Over 300 participate in annual ‘Cycle for Change’ event “Cycle for Change is an outstanding fundraising event for TTCF, organised by the STCF. When the pandemic halted everything, we struggled to raise funds for our children. That’s when we came up with the idea for Cycle for Change, and to our surprise, it quickly gained tremendous support,” shared Nighat Daudi, a member of STCF. For nearly three decades, TCF has been steadfast in its mission to educate less-privileged children in Pakistan, bringing them off the streets and into schools. The organisation maintains the same fervor, passion, and commitment that fueled its inception with five schools in 1995. Today, TCF boasts an impressive enrollment of 301,000 students studying in 2,033 school units across Pakistan. The strong participation of cyclists from various backgrounds at TCF’s Cycle for Change event reflects a collective dedication to creating a brighter future for the youth of Karachi. In the spirit of ongoing community involvement, TCF is excited to continue celebrating Cycle for Change as an annual tradition that advances its mission, the press release concluded.
