The charity for which the pirates ride is Stichting Spoetnik, which gives humanitarian aid to the Ukraine.


Stichting Spoetnik does so via a variety of projects. The specific project for the Amsterdam-Odessa Rally 2007 is the support of psychiatric hospital.


Their philosophy is not to transfer any funds, but to ship equipment.

This equipment will be bought locally or it will be gathered in the Netherlands and then shipped.

Stiching Spoetnik works in the Ukraine together with 6 other organisations, who have the permission to do so by the Ministry and the committee of humanitarian affairs in Kiev. These organisations have contacts throughout the Ukraine: Cherson and Mikolaev south, Shostka and Romny up north and Charkiv in the east.

Spoetnik has contact with a psychiatric hospital in Romny, which specializes in the aid for children.

Team 'Pirates of the Ukraine' does not need your money, but the hospital does.

If you can spare some change for a kid that needs a new teddy bear to ward off the monsters under the bed, please donate to:




ABN AMRO - 46 52 74 021 tnv Adrianus Warmenhoven and please add the notice: AMS-ODES Rally 2007

All proceeds go 100% to the charity. Team Pirates only gains time by your donation.

Pirates made port again...

The rush and business of the rally did not allow for more blog-posts (and quite frankly I forgot during the days in the Ukraine)...

And in the outlands of the Ukraine we had no sensible Internet, so apologies for the lack of info.

We made our respective havens and we now will be resting before we will have to go to work again.

In the coming week(s) there will be stories, pictures and links to other rally team sites.

It was a blast! :)
