In December 2009 students of the Citadel College in Lent chose Cycling out of Poverty as charity for which they were going to raise funds. Due to the heavy snow on the 22nd of December, the sponsor event was postponed to Wednesday 3rd of February. On this day, the students went to the centre of Nijmegen to raise funds for the Cycle to School project in Katakwi. They sold home baked biscuits, played music on the gitar and held a raffle. At the end of the day € 450,- was delivered to Cycling out of Poverty. This will enable 15 students to go to school by bicycle, so that they spent less time on their trip to school and household chores.
