Jennifer and Mollie's Mongol Rally Fundraising Page
Thank you for visiting, we appreciate your support! This is our chosen charity to raise $$ and awareness as we prepare to travel a third of the way around the world in the Mongol Rally 2009. In addition to raising money for Mercy Corps we will also be donating our car to charity once we arrive in Mongolia! If you want to follow our progress: www.2sweeteas.com
About Mercy Corps work in Mongolia "Mercy Corps supports rural communities in Mongolia 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 has established a strong reputation across the vast Gobi region, and continues to work with business associations and local organizations to ensure a robust economy that preserves ancient traditions."

A little about the team... Team SweeTeas is comprised of two southern belles who always have an itch for another adventure. Imagine one day convincing each other to drive a third of the way around the world with absolutely no mechanical knowledge, being on your own in a one liter engine car for the sake of raising money for charity and having a great story to tell. We are going to learn loads about mechanical thingys, get ourselves a trusty car and navigate ourselves through some countries we can’t even spell…
We are thrilled to be supporting Mercy Corps which consistently ranks as one of America's most effective and efficient charitable organizations. Over the last five years, more than 89 percent of resources have been allocated directly to programs.
Again, we appreciate your support and know that every penny counts...so please help us raise money for our noble cause!
xoxo
