GIVING KIDS A CHANCE AROUND THE WORLD
If you want to get fit, have fun and do something worthwhile at the same time, Gulf for Good has the answer! G4G is a Dubai-based charity, founded in 2001 under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Ahmed Bin Saeed Al Maktoum. Open to all Gulf residents and nationals, our adventure challenges around the world raise money for handpicked children´s charities in the areas where the challenges take place. To date, we´ve organised 23 challenges in 16 countries involving 500+ participants, aged from 16 to 72, & we have raised almost US 1.5 million in the process. Those funds have been donated to tangible & carefully thought out projects in the adventure challenge host countries.
We hear constantly that the challenges we organise make a huge difference to peoples´ lives. Obviously the recipients of the funds benefit enormously, but doing the challenge itself often turns out to be a life-changing experience for many challengers. Regular challenges we organise include trekking to Machu Piccu in Peru, Everest Base Camp & Mount Kilimanjaro. But we have also organised some pretty unusual challenges such as cycling in Cambodia & Thailand, kayaking in Madagascar & Oman, & multi-activity challenges in Mongolia & Borneo, plus some closer to home in Jordan, Oman, Egypt & UAE.
The five exciting adventure challenges in 2009 are:
March - cycling from Vietnam to Cambodia
May - hiking in the foothills of the Himalayas, India
July - trekking the Inca Trail (Peru)
October - hiking the Annapurna Circuit (Nepal)
November/December - cycling the Seven Emirates (UAE)
