Baku or Bust


Would you be interested in helping to raise funds for one of the biggest Welsh Charity projects in 2009 ? Or could you help by forwarding this post to all your friends and family.On May 23rd 2009, over 30 Welsh Football Supporters will set off from Cardiff in old bangers to aim to reach Baku to watch Azerbaijan play Wales in a World Cup qualifier on 6th June. The cars will have a value of £400 maximum, some will make it, some probably won't.


We will be raising funds for Gôl, the Welsh Football Supporters Charity, established in 2002, which has helped over 30 orphanages over the last 6 years as well as children's hospitals and charities in Wales such as LATCH and Ty Hafan. Some photos of the places we have been before can be seen on our website.

All the money donated for BakuorBust will be spent on good causes at over 20 orphanages which will be visited, some of which we have visited before, some totally new in. We will be backed by the Football Association of Wales and the Welsh players, who had a photo shoot with one of our cars back in November.

If your society would like to fundraise as a project and decide to focus on one of our orphanages to help we can take photos for you and acknowledge your contribution on our website. Alternatively anyone will be welcomed to make an individual donation online at our justgiving site. Donations of any size will be much appreciated.

  1. Fund raisings with celebrities or any famous personality would most likely result to a success. Just like what you are planning/doing over there.

    This project is really for a noble cause. So bad I am not nearby to have my photos taken with the stars as well. ^^

    You reminded me of a colleague. He has this big cup/trophy photo in his office and I asked him if it was his... well, he told he had the photo courtesy of a fund raising... he told that the people was so much over there to have the photo and the line was long... and he had his photo taken the first moment and he was not able to suffer the long lines as no one was aware of the event yet when he discovered it. ^^
