Andreas Isler and Marcus Niessl: Their Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 319 BT 4×4 with off-road tires offers space for four people. The vehicle is powered by a 190 hp V6 engine with selectable all-wheel drive.

The campaign supports the integration of economically and socially disadvantaged children. The entire amount is donated to the Pro Juventute Foundation and ROKJ, the youth organization of the Rotary Clubs. The two main protagonists, Andreas Isler and Marcus Niessl, draw attention to their extraordinary fundraising campaign with an impressive sporting performance. With the goal of collecting 75,000 Swiss francs, the duo starts their expedition at the North Cape in Norway. After 48 daily stages and a distance of 8000 kilometers, they end the tour on the Gibraltar Peninsula.
