Tour sans Frontieres · 8 September 2008

Médecins Sans Frontières / Doctors Without Borders (MSF) is the world's leading medical humanitarian aid organisation. We work in over 70 countries - in conflict zones, natural disasters and epidemics. We are independent, neutral and impartial. We provide medical care where it's needed most.

Story

THE CHALLENGE - Tour Sans Frontieres - a six month, international cycle tour. No support vehicle, no back-up team on the road, just us. THE CAUSE - Medecins Sans Frontieres, the international organisation which provides emergency medical aid to populations in danger (and winner of the Nobel Peace Prize). THE COSTS - MSF relies on volunteer doctors and nurses. These brave people work for next to nothing, but they need medicines and equipment. £17 provides cholera treatment for one person. £79 buys a village midwifery kit. £288 buys two emergency surgical kits. Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and secure. It's also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Médecins Sans Frontières UK gets your money quickly and, if you're a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation. So please sponsor us now! Thank you very much. Charles and Diana
