HyTest has supported Team Rynkeby-God Morgon Espoo (TRGM) team during 2017-2018 season. TRGM is a Scandinavian charity initiative that raises funds for seriously ill children and their parents.

During the last season there were total of 48 teams from 8 Scandinavian countries. Although the primary aim of TRGM teams is to raise funds they also train to make the 1200 km cycling ride to Paris possible.

For the TRGM teams the training started in October 2017 and before starting towards Paris each member had cycled at least 2500 km.

During the last season HyTest was a Gold Sponsor for the Espoo team as HyTest’s employee Pekka Hilden was riding in the team carrying HyTest logo on the jersey.

“Being part of TRGM Espoo team was a once in a life time experience. It was an excellent way to train, challenge yourself and most importantly help the team to raise funds. Arriving to Paris and see all the 1900 fellow riders showed how important work Rynkeby-God Morgon teams are doing” Pekka commented the half year challenge.

Funds raised in Finland are donated to Aamu Foundation that supports children’s cancer research and Sylva that supports children and parents burdened with the disease. All collected funds are donated as all the teams and members carry all the costs associated with the trip by themselves.
