On a scooter across Cambodia
– Collect donations for each Km you ride and take an active role in real aid projects –
Take a ride across Cambodia and see how Kleine Hilfsaktion e.V. and United VARs have helped people in Cambodia since 2019.
United VARs’ and SAPs’ first CSR project in Cambodia supplied approximately 1,000 pupils at three schools with clean water and sanitary facilities. Visit these schools and see with your own eyes how United VARs helped create a safer and healthier learning environment for these children.
Cambodia’s exotic culture and tropical landscape offer visitors something new at every turn. Otherworldly temple complexes dot the countryside, bustling markets overflowing with both local and imported products, the serene riverside city of Battambang and its French colonial architecture, sprawling rice fields beneath intense tropical skies, rainforests with countless shades of green, the dramatic Cardamom Mountains straddling Cambodia’s interior plains and the Gulf of Thailand and its tranquil islands, the vibrant metropolis of Phnom Penh, and of course the world renown Anchor Wat.
How does fundraising work on a Fundriding tour?
Each Fundrider finds sponsors for a good cause. These sponsors can support the Fundrider by paying a fixed amount for each Km the Fundrider rides or by giving a single donation. The minimum that a Fundrider should achieve in fundraising is 100 cents per Km they ride. To support the Fundriders in their efforts, we provide flyers, our business cards with a QR code, our Fundrider’s webpage and our digital donation form.
- If you reach €2.00 sponsorship per Km, United Vars will top it off with a bonus of €0.50.
- Ask for individual sponsoring packages!
- If your company sponsors your trip with at least €1.00per Km, it will have full rights to promote it.
- A filmmaker will accompany the Fundride and offer a documentary tailored to your company at the end of the tour.
In addition to finding sponsors with a total value of at least €1.00 per/Km (this equals a minimum donation of €1,500, with the trip not exceeding 1,500 Km traveled), each Fundrider will also be tasked with bringing a used wheelchair to Cambodia. To avoid unnecessary flight costs, the wheelchairs should be declared as personal medical luggage when booking the flight. We are happy to help you with this if you need it.
Tour summary
After we cross the Kardamon Mountains, the second week of our tour begins. At this time, the Fundriders will start their new jobs as development workers instead of Nadine and Roland (Kleine Hilfsaktion e.V.), a truly unique opportunity. Rest assured, we will provide you with guidance and support throughout every step of this significant and invaluable experience. The Fundriders can select their preferred project beforehand from a range of options available in Pursat (Central Cambodia) or Banan (Northern Cambodia).
A highlight of this trip will be visiting the inaugural United VARs CSR project. United VARs & SAP provided the Noritisetha School in Pursat with a water, hygiene and sanitation (WASH) system in 2019. Witness for yourself how crucial clean drinking water is for the students.
