| Carlos is encouraging you to collaborate with the charity foundations that he has been intensely involved with for quite some time now. The Fundación Deportiva Víctor Sastre sports foundation in El Barraco (Ávila), the Kinderkankerfonds in Gent (Belgium), Velokhaya en South Africa and the Ávila Down’s Syndrome Association provide care work and teaching in different fields, predominantly for children, with the aim of offering the children health and educational benefits through practising sports and medical and psychological care in specialised centres. |

 The work of the Fundación Provincial Deportiva Víctor Sastre is aimed at children, using sport as a means for personal and physical development. The foundation now has 80 students between the ages of 7 and 23 years of age. Cycling has been the main sport practised since the creation of the foundation, but they have now started working with athletics and the idea is to collaborate and help with other sports. All the children from El Barraco, Ávila city and province and other nearby provinces benefit from the ever-evolving foundation. |

Kinderkankerfonds is a Belgian foundation that focuses all its efforts and support on children suffering from cancer.
There is a reason behind supporting this non-Spanish foundation. Carlos Sastre has a fan club in Aalter, a town near Gent, that has now grown to nearly 450 members.
It was through this gratifying relationship that the idea was borne to use Carlos’ image to financially help these children. The profits from the sale of t-shirts and charitable initiatives are donated to the hospital located in this Belgian city.

Velokhaya's video and photos >>

Velokhaya is the awareness and fundraising vehicle for the Life Cycling Academy (LCA), a non-profit organization focused on introducing the sport of cycling to previously disadvantaged communities in South Africa. The LCA was established in 2002 and its programs were initially limited to introducing competitive cycling to young children in some of Cape Town's poorest communities.
Velokhaya -which takes its name from the French word for bicycle (velo) and the Xhosa word for home (khaya)- is a joint initiative by Cape Town's Life Cycling Academy (LCA), Team CSC and its sponsors, CSC, Cervélo and Descente. |
The Ávila Down’s Syndrome Association collaborates with the Public Authorities, through agreements, in the provision of specialised services for people with Down’s Syndrome.
The foundation’s philosophy centres on the dignity of human beings, considering all people with Down’s Syndrome as individuals with feelings, abilities, experiences, ambitions, needs and flaws. The foundation works on the principle that there should be more emphasis on their capabilities rather than their limitations or differences. |

CHARITY T-SHIRTS
AND PHOTOS
You too can cycle for charity with Carlos Sastre. Make a donation of 2, 5 or 10 pounds and we will send you a signed photo of Carlos in return. You can print the high quality image out on photographic paper and keep this souvenir that will help to make the lives of many children that bit better.
All the profits from the sale of these t-shirts and photos will go to these foundations that work to help better the quality of childrens’ lives. All children are the foundations of our society and that’s why we should help them from the beginning, to give them strong roots to support their principles.
