Let the Adventure Begin

Starting June 1, 2019, AJ Johnson will be riding his bike across the country from Vancouver, Canada to Tijuana, Mexico (an approximate total of 1,800 miles) in an effort to raise $20,000 towards education and tuition for trafficked children rescued by Touch A Life. Follow them on their adventure!

AJ is Going Big

Why is AJ doing this? Why is he taking 6 weeks and traveling 1800 miles? It seems like a pretty big deal. Well, it is. AJ strongly believes in living a life that gives back and supports those in need. This is a tremendous opportunity for him to use his love for athletics, outdoor adventure, and people to help build toward the future.

The futures he is helping to build specifically through this adventure are the children who are a part of Touch A Life. Touch A Life is committed to providing holistic, customized child care for the children in our programs, complete with regular medical and mental health assessments, art healing programming, and educational and vocational empowerment. By equipping them with individualized care plans, high quality academic opportunities, and critical life skills, these children will grow into healthy, community-changing adults, fulfilling our mission to RESCUE, RENEW, and RESTORE.

Join Us for the Adventure

You might be asking how you can help. What part can you play? Well, there are a few different ways you can partner with us. You can give directly to Touch A Life. Your gifts will help AJ reach his $20,000 goal toward education and tuition. You can also donate equipment and gear for the journey. AJ is seeking gear as gifts or even just as loans to make sure he has everything he needs to complete the journey. And finally, you can help fund the trip by helping to offset expenses like food, camp sites, and gas. If you are interested in any of these opportunities, we would love to hear from you.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed so far to help make this ride possible. We are excited to tell you that we have reached $7,810, almost half of our goal! With your help, we know that we can reach and even surpass $20,000.
