Sponsorship money
Our support is needed for the reconstruction in Syria. We therefore ask you to collect at least 184 euros for the projects that we support with Walk of Homs. The sponsor amount is based on the fact that there was only one Frans van der Lugt, who would turn 84 in 2022. We understand that it can be difficult to raise money, but we are happy to help you with some extra inspiration. View our sponsor tips here.

It is possible to keep track of your walked kilometers on your action page. You can do this by manually adding the kilometers to your action page after each walk. Or by linking your Strava account when you are logged in. Then your kilometers will automatically be added to your action page after each walk.

Supporters St. John's Cathedral, 's-Hertogenbosch
