Dumball Rally · 24 May 2008 to 31 May 2008 ·

War Child is striving for a world in which no child's life is torn apart by war. We protect, educate and stand up for the rights of children living in war zones across the world. Your support today will help us reach even more children in need.

Story

This May, we will be taking part in the Dumball 2008 (dumball.org) - a charity run to Corfu over 7 days in aid of War Child.

War Child works with children who have been hit hardest by some of the recent wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda. This includes imprisoned children and those on the street. Their aim is to tackle poverty, conflict and social exclusion alongside other organisations including government initiatives.

We will be turning this beautiful Honda Accord (pictured left, bought from Roger Hotchkiss who gave us a great deal!) into the fattest, pimpiest, New York style yellow taxi on the face of the planet.  Huge amounts of time, effort, blood, sweat, tears, and a whole lot more is going towards raising as much for War Child as is humanly possibly.

Please, please dig deep and sponsor us online.

100% of what you donate goes straight to War Child.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: War Child will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor us now!

Many thanks for your support.
