Helping underprivileged children with 4L Trophy

in #life7 years ago

What's 4L Trophy ?

First, some numbers. At the 2018 edition, the 21th edition of the Raid 4L Trophy ™, 1300 crews or 2,600 participants from more than 1,460 schools, have set off from the Halle d'Iraty, for a unique beginning in Biarritz aboard the mythical 4L. In sight, Marrakech, final destination of a journey of 10 days and nearly 6000 kilometers swallowed on the roads of France, Spain and the tracks of Morocco. All of which make the Raid 4L Trophy ™ the biggest student raid in Europe.

But more than simple numbers aligned, the Raid 4L Trophy ™ is a great human adventure, sports and solidarity for students aged 18 to 28 years. Here, it is not a question of speed but of direction to prevail. To take up the challenge is first to cross the finish line. And to achieve this, participants will discover the full dimension of the word self-help. To thwart the traps of wadis and sand in which many will not fail to get soggy. To troubleshoot the neighbor, victim of a mechanical problem. It is thanks to the mutual help that will be born on the faces of each one the immense satisfaction of the accomplished duty, the pride of having given everything for oneself and for the others.

In addition to their thirst for large spaces, crews embark on board their 4L equipment and school supplies for the poorest children in Morocco. Anchored in the DNA of the Raid 4L Trophy ™, solidarity with local populations is not an empty word. This is evidenced by the great emotion that each year engages the participants during the donation ceremony organized in partnership with the "Children of the Desert" association, one of the highlights of the adventure.


Our project

We are two students of BTS GPN high school saint laurent Théophile.G and Corentin.C and made the decision to embark on the great adventure that is the 4L trophy!

It had been a while since this idea passed us by the head but here we are now running to achieve it. Helping people to improve their daily lives and to allow them access to education is one of the most beautiful causes.

This is why we are embarking on this adventure which will require great efforts but which in the end will be wonderful. We will need all possible help and support from as many people as possible. We are counting on you! We will detail all types of help sought by our association in a future publication.
