The union of Wikaboo and "Terra dos Sonhos" (Land of Dreams) in an attempt to make the dream of children with cancer come true, travel to Eurodisney Paris, in exchange for their smiles... 1 IRONMAN FOR 1000 SMILES

Together we have a common dream to fulfill, complete the Ironman distance in Roth on the 9 July 2017, the most emblematic Long Distance Triathlon in Europe, with more than 300.000 live spectators.

 An Ironman is a continuous competition of 3.8km swimming, 180km cycling and 42.2km running, the training and preparation process being long, sinuous and with multiple challenges.

 But any one of those challenges is incomparably less than what children fighting for their life experience every day.

The campaign we wish to launch includes, from our part, being able to achieve an additional motivation for training and for our dream of completing the Roth Challenge - Ironman Distance through a fundraising campaign aimed at providing the experience of fulfilling a dream to the biggest number of children with cancer, that of going to Paris to Eurodisney. We want the additional motivation of bringing children with that terrible disease to fulfill their dream, just as we hope to fulfill ours in July.

 Taking into account the high cost of travel, accommodation, food, as well as the need to obligatorily travel accompanied due to being children, it is estimated that the trip will cost 1.000 euros per child;

 Our aim is to manage to bring 4 children to fulfill that dream i.e., to raise 4.000 euros, through the crowdfunding platform.

About the author

Wikaboo was founded by Nuno Barradas and is a group composed of amateur athletes, ex athletes and friends who train daily under the guidance of Nuno Barradas. The Wikaboo Group is characterised by the passion, emotion and spirit which all athletes place on their challenges and personal and sport goals.

 More than a sports club for swimming, cycling and athletics or all three (triathlon), being part of Wikaboo means understanding that only speed separates its members, with unique examples of camaraderie, friendship and solidarity. Our motto is: "Today I did my best... Tomorrow I will do better!"

"Terra dos Sonhos" is a Portuguese nonprofit social organisation, founded on the 1 June 2007, World Children's Day.

 "Terra dos Sonhos" wishes to raise awareness and inspire society with regards to the importance of the emotional and mental well-being in the quality of life and physical health of people, and to implement tools of emotional well-being for the segments of society whose physical or emotional health is especially impaired.  

 The dream's factory is one of the projects of "Terra dos Sonhos", its main activity is making dreams come true (individual format) or making dream experiences come true (group format) for children and youth with chronic diseases, institutionalised children and youth and elderly people, as a means of communicating a message of hope through the possibility of attaining their most inspiring goals, independently of their circumstances, constraints and limitations.

 

 Overcoming the impossibility through the creation of possibility is the final result intended!

    1 Ironman por 1000 Sorrisos - Obrigado

    Olá,

    Chegou ao fim a campanha "1 Ironman por 1000 Sorrisos".

    Campanha essa que superou todas as expectativas e graças a colaboração e ajuda de todos permitiu que 12 crianças visitassem a Disneyland em Paris.
    A viagem decorreu de 5 a 9 de Setembro e foi um sucesso, uma vez que todos tiveram a oportunidade de desfrutar de uma experiência magnífica.

    Partilhamos convosco um testemunho na primeira pessoa, neste caso do enfermeiro Mário Lopes que fez parte da comitiva que viajou.
