A charity tour for orphan children
Trudy and Dirk Regter from the Netherlands go on a world tour in a 1915 Ford Model T, covering all continents of the world. They are making this trip with the aim of raising money for orphans worldwide.
To date, they have driven 64,000 miles across 31 countries and have raised more than $45,000 spent on children's projects in Colombia and Bolivia.
An earlier trip by Dirk in 2007 from Beijing to Paris in the Model T raised more than $140,000, of which 2 children's projects were built in Mongolia.
The last part of their world tour,about 10,500 miles, takes them back home to the Netherlands via Asia.
If you support the purpose of this journey, you can take ownership of some of these 10,500 miles of this final leg.
Buy your miles and thus contribute to a better future for orphans.
