The Pedal Power Association recently donated bicycles and helmets to the Anna Foundation as part of the PPA's current project funding initiative.  Last week PPA staff members visited Zorgvliet West, a farm nestled near the top of the Helshoogte Pass in Stellenbosch, to meet some of the farm kids whose lives are being changed for the better by this project.
