The ultimate and real reason for the Whale
Rally (for Ulysses Garden Route)
is the donation of the profits from the rally to public charities.
Unfortunately, most of you never see this happening. To experience something
like this makes it all worthwhile - it's not possible to explain the feeling and
emotion involved in doing this. To see the gratitude and know that the gratitude
is genuine, is just AWESOME.
Our guidelines are simple, charities need to be
within our chapter's boundaries, charities need to be registered NGO's, charities
should not be receiving government funding and finally our preferance is to
provide goods needed as opposed to giving hard cash.
We feel that you should know who they are and
what they do, as all you wonderful bikers who were at the rally over the years
have a stake in this.
