The organization also provides education and vocational support to land mine survivors.</p>
<p>Even though Lisa has given over 300 bicycles to rural students to get to school, she doesn&#8217;t have a bike of her own for travel throughout rural Cambodia.</p>
<p>Excerpt from an article in  <a href="http://www.whatsupmuskoka.com/sitepages/" target="_self">What&#8217;s Up Muskoka</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;McCoy knows the monetary and practical value of the donation, and was amazed when she received the news.</p>
<p>“I was just in awe when I got an e-mail saying they were going to donate one to me for getting around the villages and around the city in Cambodia,” says McCoy, remembering the moment.</p>
<p>The versatility of this bike has McCoy excited for her return to Cambodia in October. It can go on the</p>
<p>airplane with her checked baggage, and even on a bus. “They can even go on the back of a motorcycle, and in Cambodia,</p>
<p>everything goes on the back of a motorcycle,” she laughs. She’s anticipating some double-takes as she travels with her Strida.</p>
<p>“They’ll never have seen anything like this before, and it’s going to be a novelty for them as well. I’m sure I’ll</p>
<p>get some interesting reactions when I start my six-month term this coming winter.”</p></blockquote>
