- 3,000,000 children in South Asia under 5 years old die each year due to illness and malnutrition. -
David Argabright began a cross country bicycle trip on March 12 from San Diego, CA to St. Augustine, FL in order to raise sponsorship funds and awareness for children living in poverty in South Asia. He is partnering with Compassion 575, a ministry of the Church of the Nazarene, in this endeavor.
The money raised will go towards sponsoring a child in a CDC (Child Development Center). Child Development Centers meet the physical, spiritual, & educational needs of the children.
You can follow his bike ride & read more information about Compassion 575 at his website: http://www.compassion575.com/index.php
He will also be updating his blog (http://nazareneblogs.org/davidargabright/ ) along the way as well.
