From Paris to Beirut, Every Kilometer is a Message of Hope
| Two Lebanese citizens. One bike ride. Thousands of children to help. Hello, we’re Ralph Al Khoury and Karla Jabbour - a professional cyclist and a professional runner - on a mission to fight cancer the only way we know how: with action, heart, and people power. This September, we’re cycling 5,000 km from Paris to Beirut to raise awareness and funds for children with cancer in Lebanon - a country where access to treatment has become nearly impossible for many families. We’re not backed by institutions. We’re backed by you. |
This is a people-led mission.
with 100% transparency.
