My personal message:
On July 15, 2007 Team Trabant will meet in Germany to attempt what many of called the impossible. Our mission; Germany to Cambodia in a few plastic cars to raise $300,000 for M'Lop Tapang and Mith Samlanh, the two Cambodian charities we support, and awareness for the global issue of street children.

The 15,000 mile road ahead is a long and bumpy one, especially in our chosen mode of transport, the Trabant!  We have 3 of the plastic communist-era cars!!

Hopefully attempting this in a vehicle never designed for a trip of such mammoth proportions will attract attention to the global issue of street children and generate much needed funds for the Cambodian street children.

We urge you to wander through our website
www.trabanttrek.org  and become part of Trabant Trek.  Whether encouraging us on our message board, helping to spread the word or, most importantly, by providing a tax-deductible donation, you will become a valued member of Team Trabant.

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

*FUNDS ARE GIVEN THROUGH THE FRIENDS INTERNATIONAL INC AND WILL DISTRIBUTED EQUALLY BETWEEN MITH SAMLANH AND M'LOP TAPANG*

So please sponsor us now! Every last penny will go directly to M'Lop Tapang and Mith Samlanh.

We thank you kindly for your support

Team Trabant
