Right to Play's mission is to improve the lives of children in the most disadvantaged areas of the world by using the power of sport and play for development, health and peace.
It is now possible to support the work of the international, humanitarian organization Right To Play by taking part in popular cross-country races belonging to the Worldloppet series.
Worldloppet organizers have very generously donated Right To Play starting places in many of the races. All funds raised will go towards the sport and play programs that the organization runs at the refugee camp in Kigoma, Tanzania.
The Worldloppet partners participating in 2008 are: the Marcialonga, König Ludwig Lauf, Tartu Maraton, La Transjurassienne, Gatineau Loppet, Engadin Skimarathon and Birkebeinerrennet.
Right To Play is very proud that top cross-country champions Bjœrn Dæhlie (NOR), Beckie Scott (CAN) and Anders and Jœrgen Aukland (NOR) are all supporting the campaign.
