Slalom canoeist Vavrinec "Vávra" Hradilek, Olympic medallist and multiple world champion,
was paddling down the Ganges in a borrowed kayak in Bangladesh.
121 km to support 121 Bangladeshi children from the Chalantika slum.

Chalantika is located in Dhaka, a city of 20 million people. It is built over a swamp, and made of bamboo, planks, and corrugated iron sheets. It is home to 10,000 of the poorest people.

Vávra is not going to Bangladesh for medals, but for a better future for the slum children.
The humanitarian organisation ADRA and people like you are sending them to school.
