Hello everyone.

Registered to take part in the "Rallye Roses des Sables" next October, I invite you to read this online fundraiser, where you are free to make a donation to help us (my future teammate and I) financially bring this project—so close to our hearts—to life.

In a few words...

A nurse by profession, I have only one wish: to set off to conquer the Moroccan desert next October, behind the wheel of an off‑road vehicle (4x4). Not to "go on a trip", as some might mistakenly think, but to live an extraordinary adventure!

In search of meaning, and being a great fan of adrenaline, I signed up without hesitation to take part in the "Rallye Roses des Sables": a 100% female, solidarity-based sporting rally held every October in Morocco.

The "Rallye Roses des Sables" in more detail:

It is a competition that is both sporting and charitable: equipped with their off‑road vehicles, participants face various challenges in southern Morocco (dune‑crossing tests, navigation tests, etc.) to support different causes close to women’s hearts. The women who take part in this sporting and charitable event work directly with several associations, including "Ruban Rose", dedicated to breast cancer awareness and early screening.

My personal motivations for this project:

My mother had breast cancer a few years ago; my close relatives and I witnessed the fierce battle she had to face for many months, as well as all the ordeals she went through.

Supporting the fight against breast cancer has been an obvious choice since she was affected by the disease.

To defend this cause that has mattered to me since childhood, I became involved in 2019 with a Sartrouville‑based association called "Femme Cancer Espérance", where I am currently the communications officer.

Although the solidarity actions carried out in collaboration with "Femme Cancer Espérance" have allowed me to grow personally—by giving time to people affected directly or indirectly by the disease and by sharing common values with them—I wanted to sign up for the "Rallye Roses des Sables" to make my commitment to the fight against breast cancer even more official.

For me, doing this rally will above all be an opportunity to honor my mother, but also all people affected by breast cancer.

Moreover, beyond my motivation to support the various associations associated with the rally, I am convinced that after taking part in such an adventure one emerges greatly enriched on a personal level.

Indeed, although this rally is accessible to everyone, it still requires many personal resources to participate: self‑confidence; trust in others; resourcefulness; and determination are essential qualities to live such an adventure. It will be an opportunity for me to push my own limits and surpass myself, both physically and mentally.

What is the purpose of the fundraiser?

Participation in the "Rallye Roses des Sables" requires significant financial means for each crew (solo or duo). For the category we chose with my future teammate (4x4), the total amount required to take part in the rally is between €11,000 and €12,000.

Most of the funds must be raised by approaching companies or individuals likely to finance our project, but creating an online fundraiser remains essential: it allows us to make the project known to as many people as possible and to collect money "remotely" (in parallel with other fundraising activities carried out by our crew).

Having already raised €470 in the past thanks to a previous online fundraiser, I am repeating the operation now with this new fundraiser to reach more people.

The money raised via this fundraiser will allow us, for example, to finance: vehicle insurance; fuel costs; travel expenses; the acquisition of equipment necessary for the expedition (tents and sleeping bags, compasses, helmets approved for the chosen off‑road vehicle...); and driving and navigation training.

How can you help us realize this extraordinary project?

- By donating to this online fundraiser => every euro counts, so please consider contributing if you also support the fight against breast cancer and would like to help us make this project a reality.

- By telling your network about this online fundraiser (friends, family, colleagues, local businesses...), and by sharing the information on social media.
