Taptap Send, the new app that is currently changing the game of remittance for OFWs worldwide with its ZERO fees, convenient and fast money transfers, is proud to announce its support of an inspiring cycling team in the Philippines led by popular cycling vlogger Angelo Bryant Licup also known as “Angelo Bikerdude”.With a shared commitment to empowering communities, Angelo, together with Taptap Send, is building the first cycling team composed of OFW dependents helping them compete in national and hopefully international cycling races.A Certified Public Accountant, Angelo has been a champion of cycling for over two decades. He started his YouTube channel back in 2015 as a way to connect with fellow cyclists and to share some tips and tricks on racing but his popularity took off when he shared a video of their long ride to Pagudpud, Ilocos Norte.<center><img alt="Pinoy Cycling with Taptap Send!" src="https://aa1a-dctp-s3-entertainment.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/updates/entertainment/2023/07/31/taptap-send-1.jpg"/></center>Today, his dedication to the sport has led him to creating his own developmental team, training, and providing opportunities to underprivileged youth, most of them coming from OFW families and this has caught the interest of sponsors including Taptap Send. Angelo chose to sign up for OFW dependents because he experienced the same challenges as his own mother, a single mom, who had to leave her children to work abroad. He grew up with his siblings, under the care of relatives and he knew how hard it is to grow up away from a parent.“It all started during the pandemic. I’ve noticed that more kids are getting into cycling and racing, but no one is actually teaching them how it’s done properly. I realized that if I teach these kids and show the world through my vlog how I train them, then more children would learn, get interested and discover cycling.”<center><img alt="Pinoy Cycling with Taptap Send!" src="https://aa1a-dctp-s3-entertainment.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/updates/entertainment/2023/07/31/taptap-send-2.jpg"/></center><center><img alt="Pinoy Cycling with Taptap Send!" src="https://aa1a-dctp-s3-entertainment.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/updates/entertainment/2023/07/31/taptap-send-3.jpg"/></center>As part of the collaboration, Taptap Send is providing financial assistance to the cycling team, ensuring they have access to necessary equipment, training facilities, and coaching. By eliminating financial barriers, Taptap Send aims to level the playing field and create equal opportunities for these talented less fortunate youngsters.“We are thrilled to join forces with Angelo in honing the skills of these young cyclists in the Philippines,” said Faye Sta Ana, Country Launcher of Taptap Send. “At Taptap Send, we believe in the power of financialinclusion and enabling individuals to thrive. Through this partnership, we hope to empower disadvantaged youth, allowing them to pursue their passions and dream big.”In addition to the financial support, Taptap Send will collaborate with Angelo Bikerdude to organize mentorship programs and workshops, providing guidance on various aspects of their development. These initiatives will equip the young athletes with essential life skills, such as teamwork, discipline, and resilience, empowering them to excel not only in cycling but also in their personal lives.“We are incredibly grateful to Taptap Send for their support,&quot; said Angelo. This partnership will have a significant impact on the lives of the children we work with. Hopefully, someday, we’ll be able to train them enough so that they can compete abroad and represent our country in both national &amp; international races.”Find out more about Taptap Send Philippines and how they are supporting Filipino communities around the world!
