Raising money for

SOS Children's Villages UK

Charity Registration No. 1069204

For nearly 60 years, SOS Children has built communities around the world for children who have no one to turn to. By providing a home and a new mother in a purpose-built local Village, thousands of orphaned and abandoned children have been given a loving and secure family for life.

SOS Children also plays an important role in supporting the development of local communities by building and running nursery, primary and secondary schools; vocational training centres and medical centres, all of which are open to the children in our care and to those from the wider community. Where possible, we want to prevent child abandonment, so we offer skills, training, education, counselling and micro-loans to vulnerable families so can they can provide for their children in the long-term. SOS Children also provides emergency relief in situations of crisis and disaster.

Today, we care for more than 78,000 children in 490 unique SOS Children's Villages in 124 countries worldwide, and also support a further one million children and families in local communities.

My story

The Mongolia Charity Rally is a pan-continental drive across five mountain ranges, two deserts and more barren and inhospitable lands than you care to shake a gear-stick at.

On 19 July 2008 Team Steppe On It will set forth from Sheffield to Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia’s Capital. Taking a route through 13 countries including Poland, Ukraine, Russia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Mongolia. Shadowing the Silk Road & following in the footsteps of Genghis Khan.

10,000 miles of pot-holes, bandits and dodgy suspension…...Oh, and it’s all for charity.

Undertaking this intrepid challenge are James Tissington, Peter Williams & Peter Tissington. Armed only with passports, visa's, pigeon senses & a worrying lack of mechanical knowledge.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: SOS Children's Villages Charity 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 dig deep and sponsor us now!

Many thanks for your support.

James, Peter & Peter
