the sucata run proceeds are for a malaria awareness campaign, and each £1000 will pay for 5 schools from around the world to take part in the project, take a looksie at the links.
if you need to know what malaria is and does, try these :
world health organisation http://apps.who.int/malaria/wmr2008/
wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malaria
like scudders said, we buy the car and insure it, pay fuel, accomodation and any other expenses - it is after all a holiday, so we foot the bill.
So everything contributed in sponsorship all goes to the charity.
