Story
Thank you for visiting Team Clouseau's Mercy Corps fundraising page.
On the 21st July 2007 we are attempting to drive our Citroen 2CV6 ("The Hornet ") from London to Mongolia in approximately three weeks as part of the Mongol Rally.
200 teams will depart, not all will make it... Our route will take us through 12 countries featuring dirt tracks, river crossings and a couple of deserts.
Mercy Corps Mongolia supports rural communities to meet their economic and social needs, helping individuals, families and communities to become more self-sufficient, diversified in their production, and better linked to local, regional and national markets. Over the past five years Mercy Corps Mongolia has established a strong reputation across the vast Gobi region, and continues to work with business associations and local organisations to ensure a robust economy that preserves ancient traditions.
Currently they run the following projects in Mongolia: Gobi Regional Economic Growth Initiatives (Gobi Initiative), Gobi Forage, Rural Agribusiness Support Program (RASP) and the Training, Advocacy and Networking Programme.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Mercy Corps 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.
