NIGERIA TO USA RIDE
About Emmiwuks
Emmiwuks (Myam Emmanuel Aondoungwa) is a long‑distance cyclist, storyteller, and passionate humanitarian from Benue State, Nigeria. What began as a simple dream has now become a global mission using a bicycle to inspire millions and bring hope to the less privileged across Africa.
In 2023, while earning just ₦15,000 a month as a crane motor boy, he saved gradually and completed a 640KM solo ride from Benue to Lagos. That journey revealed his purpose: to use cycling as a tool for change.
Today, he is taking on his biggest challenge yet a transcontinental ride from Nigeria to the USA, dedicated entirely to supporting vulnerable children.
This mission is powered by resilience, faith, and the belief that even one person with courage can change lives.
HOW IT HELPS
On a mission to support orphans, IDPs, and vulnerable children across Africa
Vocational & Digital Skills Training
Not every child will follow the traditional school path. Your support helps sponsor digital skills, crafts, vocational training, and entrepreneurship programs giving displaced youths real skills they can use to earn a living and build a sustainable future
Education Support & Scholarships
Many displaced and orphaned children are out of school simply because their families cannot afford tuition, uniforms, books, or basic learning materials. This mission will fund school fees, provide supplies, and help children return to classrooms where their future can begin again.
Nutrition & Medical Support
Vulnerable children struggle daily without food or access to medical care. This mission funds feeding programs, health checkups, hygiene kits, and essential medication — ensuring no child has to fight for survival alone.
Shelter, Rehabilitation & Counseling
A large number of displaced children have lost homes, families, and emotional stability. Your support helps secure safe shelters, rehabilitation spaces, and trauma counseling places where children can heal, recover, and find hope again.
A Journey That Sparks Hope
Emmiwuks’ Nigeria → USA cycling mission is more than a physical challenge. It is a symbol of courage, faith, and determination proof that even someone earning ₦15,000 a month can dream big, fight harder, and inspire millions to believe in possibilities.
Awareness, Community & Impact Across Borders
This ride will raise global awareness for Africa’s vulnerable children, unite supporters across continents, and amplify the voices of those who often go unheard. Every donation, share, and message creates a larger movement of love and humanity
