Wayne (Katarn1977) visited South Africa on a student exchange in 2016. He was soon absorbed into the SA geocaching community and became known as Captain America. Nothing was too far or too dificult for Wayne who's response to a challenge was always "Let's Do It".
On one of his extreme hikes (to GC4RGYK), in search of an FTF on along with some fellow Cachers, he found an orphanage at Pulane in Lesotho. He immediately tried to get the local Port Elizabeth community to supprt the orphanage.
An idea was born to challenge Wayne to doing as many caches as possible in a calendar month and amounts were sponsored on a per cache basis. Wayne put in the hard miles and eventually found 853 caches and raised in excess of R15 000, with sponsorship from South Africa and the USA. These funds were used to purchase a much needed trailer for the Pulane Children's Center - Wayne's Wagon.
Captain America : still 'doing it' from the USA to Pulane (via South Africa).
