The official race charity is  Save the Children Fund which regularly informs all Crew Volunteers about the organisation's progress around the world.

What Save the Children say:

"The International Save the Children Alliance (Save the Children) is the world's leading independent movement for children. It is made up of 29 organisations around the world who between them work in over 100 countries, sharing a common aim - to work for the betterment of children, their families and the environment."

In 1992, Save the Children  was nominated as the official race charity of the British Steel Challenge 1992-1993. This relationship continued in the 1996-1997 BT Global Challenge, when over  £560,000 (US$840,000) was raised and extensive publicity was achieved on a local, national and international level. The BT Global Challenge 2000-2001 set a fundraising  target of  £300,000 (US$450,000) and finally achieved over £1,000,000.
