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.

    After sending the website updates, and fitting the welded steeringrod on the Ford, we filled up the tank, and at 10:30 we go for the border.

      Hi Dirk Trudy en de kinderen ; Ik heb net even wat filmpjes van Costantine in moskou bekeken ook een prestatie , en zijn Fordje heeft het dacht ik goed gedaan .Net als die van jullie , alleen die spoorstang speelt af en toe wat op.Volgens mij is die hol heb je al geprobeerd om er een stuk staaf in te slaan en dan te lassen .We volgen jullie elke dag en zien zodoende ook wat van de anderekant van de wereld Zeker voor jullie moet het een hele ervaring zijn al die andere culturen .Het aller beste en een hele voorspoedige reis met elkaar
      Toon en Ditty
