Tempe, AZ -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/06/2013 -- Voice America Talk Radio Network, Internet broadcasting pioneer, producing and syndicating online audio and video, today announced that multiple award winning engineer, inventor and entrepreneur, Christopher Ategeka, the Founder and President of CA Bikes in Uganda will join Tope Ganiyah Fajingbesi, host of The Impact Africa radio program on the VoiceAmerica Variety Channel (http://www.voiceamerica.com/show/2210/impact-africa) Thursday, December 5, at 4 p.m. Pacific Time.

Christopher Ategeka will discuss CA Bikes, an organization he founded, which locally assembles and distributes bicycles to orphans/other vulnerable children who are bright students and live 8-20 kilometers from school and to HIV positive youth who live long distances from the health clinics where they receive weekly ARV treatments. CA Bikes also builds custom hand-powered tricycles for disabled youth and adults, and bicycle trailer ambulances to connect rural villagers to their nearest health clinic, an innovation that has reduced deaths due to transportation challenges.

Christopher has received several awards for his work at CA Bikes, including the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) award, and the Judith Lee Stronach award. Christopher is also an Echoing Green fellow. He spoke at TEDxSacramento in 2012 and delivered the commencement student address at University of California Berkeley's College of Engineering graduation ceremonies in 2011. Christopher holds a Bachelors and Masters in Mechanical Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley and is currently pursuing his Ph.D at the same institution.
