About our charity : War Child War Child
War Child is an international child protection agency that works with the most marginalised children - child soldiers, street kids and children in prison - in Iraq, Afghanistan, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda. War Child believes it is unacceptable that children continue to be victims of war. 66% of people who die in conflict are children. In the last decade alone 1.5 million children have died in wars. Four million have been disabled and a further 10 million traumatised. We provide vital, on the ground support programmes in each of the conflict zones we work in but also lobby politicians and governments to ensure our cause and the rights of children affected by war remains high on the public and political agendas. This approach allows us to ensure every pound we receive goes as far as possible - not only to the crucial projects in the field, but to ensuring children caught up in conflict, no matter where they may be, have a chance to be protected. We work where other agencies do not, reaching the most at risk children in the most dangerous war zones and your support means we can continue to do so. War Child looks forward to a world in which war is not prosecuted on children.

Our personal message:

Thanks for visiting my Dumball page.

On 23rd May the Dumball Rally once again sets out on another epic journey across the continent. This year we will be going from Brussels to Corfu via Germany. Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro, Albania, Macedonia and a few other places.

All this in one week, one crap car, and some delightful fancy dress.  30 odd teams will be driving in convoy, spreading the spirit of Dumball to our European neighbours as we complete our purposeless journey.

As we are travelling through some countries recently ravaged by war, we'll be raising money for war child, a fantastic charity that help kids caught up in conflicts. Last year over £25,000 was raised by the Dumball for the Teenage Cancer Trust, lets try and better that....

Thanks for reading this - wish us luck!
