WOAM — Mongolia 2026: Lake Khövsgöl Ice Crossing

Team Fundraising Page — Join Us on an Extraordinary Mission

In February 2026, our team of bold, purpose-driven women will travel to northern Mongolia to take on an adventure like no other: a 160 km crossing of the frozen Lake Khövsgöl, on foot, by fat bike, and on ice skates — in temperatures dropping to –30°C ❄️

This expedition is part of Women On A Mission (WOAM), a volunteer-led movement dedicated to pushing our limits in some of the world’s most remote places to raise vital funds for women survivors of war.

Together, we are proud to fundraise for Women for Women International, our charity partner for 13 years. Every pound raised helps provide women with the tools, skills, and support they need to rebuild their lives and their communities.

Each participant has created her own fundraising page and joined this team page, where all our efforts and your donations come together.

Follow our collective progress as we prepare for this epic journey of strength, resilience, and sisterhood.

💙 Support our mission 🌟 Encourage our team 🤝 Help us change lives

* Each participant covers her own travel costs, so your donation goes directly to Women for Women International and their life-changing programmes.
