Eva met Tibetanen voor Casa del Tibet in Barcelona

Solidarity

For each fundraising trip, Reach Out partners with a charity as a direct beneficiary. Sometimes this collaboration runs for several years, sometimes it is a one-off.

From 2018 to 2021, Eva cycled to raise money for various charities: to fund a boy’s education in Bubaque (Guinea-Bissau), Street Nurses and the Braille League (Belgium). 

Since March 2022, Reach Out asbl has entered into a long-term partnership with International Campaign for Tibet (ICT) Europe, which works to preserve Tibetan culture and respect the human rights of Tibetans living under repressive Chinese occupation since 1950. 

As China aims to ‘Sinicise’ Tibet completely and is systematically destroying its distinctive culture, Eva raised funds from 2022 to 2024, in consultation with ICT, for projects of Tibetan associations in exile. After all, the preservation of Tibetan culture, language and religion is now largely in their hands.

In 2025, a special project was organised to mark the Dalai Lama’s 90th birthday/

From 2026 onwards, the board decided to provide its own support for ICT, as, in the current geopolitical context, the fight against China’s lack of respect for human rights is of global importance.
