My personal message:
Thank you for visiting our  fund-raising page. Please dig deep and sponsor Car 17 on-line.

The Rhino Charge is an event where participants and spectators come together to support the Rhino Ark.  It is a race and a high adventure 4WD competition representing one of the toughest off-road challenges in the world.  The objective is to complete 13 check points in the shortest distance within a 10 hour time limit. It is about determination, commitment, team-building and friendship. 

The 2007 Rhino Charge raised an unprecedented $1 million US dollars – and our team alone raised $40,000 – 2.5million Kenyan shillings.  We came 15th in the Charge out of a field of 60 teams in 2007.  Every year we aim to improve on last years results – fund-raising and on the day.

We are competing again on 1st June 2008.  We are doing this because we believe in conserving the unique Aberdare mountain range.  It is home to numerous endangered species including rhino, elephant and bongo and is a crucial water shed and catchment area supporting millions of people and industry.

The bottom line is: the conservation value of this effort is enormous. 

We look forward to the Charge 2007 challenge – our team and car are ready but to achieve our goals we need your help before 1st June 2008.
