Making invisibile disabilities visible



Bikers4epilepsy NPC is more then just the avarage charity.

We have made the impossible possible all while self funding. The one or 2 odd funds here or there doesnt last long as we are active alway and need serious funding soon.

Every weekend we travel South Africa without fail to all tipes of events and campaign our awareness for invisible disabilities while educating and providing services ect to the general public.

We have recently been dealing with alot of severe trauma cases and incidents were we had to provide aid untill medical services could reach patients.

We make ourselfs accessable to the general public and provide all services for free.

We are trying to get our merch sales up inorder to get funds more self sustaining.

Recently it has been with huge sadness that we have to be more selective of events as supporting all other causes and fundraising events were sofar we have been the only charity to either show up and as always do our awareness campaigning and really make a difference to peoples lives being subjected to others just show up to collect checks while recieving most funding.

We are at point brake as funds are out our own pockets going over 3 years even after only getting NPC nr last year and trying to get PBO ect still.

We have launched the only merch for invisible disabilities with our designs made to gain attention while spreading hope to those in need, awareness and wearing our merch is being part of making real change.

Besides sales of our stall custom jewelery, designs,piercings, ect out our personal busnisses and poor events support due to raising economy prices having to restock, pay diesel, tolgates, accomodation, food, ect to keep campaigning and changing lives of the most forgotten and untalked about cause Invisible Disabilities we cant keep up.

Paying the bills and funding a cause like this is insane especially if its out own pocket.

I cant take another 'dont worry you will come rite' or ' it will come your doing such good work' or ' why dont you guys get funding' questions.

My charity moto is WE REFUSE TO FAIL.

I have 3 forms of Epilepsy and PTSD myself. Go threw hell sometimes having seizures at events from being over tired, worked, stressed, but not once have I ever not showen up or kept my word.

I really want to ask from all of you to make a change and get behind causes like my charity Bikers4epilepsy.

It horrible watching time and time again how people like me are excluded and disability rights get exploited. Yet making money off disabled people is protected.

Help us find the sunshine too as causes like mine never get the attention or funding and real vonurable people die and suffer.

Is this what humankind has become??

Help us bring the noice and safe lives!!!!
