Henty Bike for Bibles 2024

I'm raising funds for the Bible Society and I'd love your support.

I'm fundraising for the Bible Society by challenging myself to ride in the Henty Bike for Bibles ride. The funds I raise will support Bible Society's Literacy project in the Solomon Islands.

While 90% of Solomon Islanders surveyed had some formal schooling, functional literacy rates in major provinces can be as low as 7 to 17%. Young people lack the education and experience they need to find
paid work, which is a major problem in the Solomon Islands.

There is good availability of Scriptures in local languages, with the New Testament translated into 19 languages so far, and the full Bible into three, including the Pijin language, which is widely spoken.

However, with literacy rates so low, reading the Scriptures — let alone understanding them — is a struggle for many people.

Will you help us make the Bible accessible to as many people as possible?
