**Fuel: Calculations based on worst case pricing for fuel costs and higher than average consumption for an average vehicle. The cost of fuel
in SA is higher than Namibia, Botswana, Mozambique, while Zambia and Malawi can be considerably higher. *Zimbabwe also has lower fuel
costs. Best to have a jerry can or two to carry some extra fuel.

Founded by former Springbok captain Bob Skinstad and super globetrotter, Ron
Rutland, the Bobs for Good Foundation is an exciting, high impact Public Beneficiary
Organisation that is rapidly becoming one of South Africa's most prominent contributors to
social development.
They work relentlessly with partners on the ground, as well as private and public donors to
ensure the neediest children of this great country walk with hope, pride and dignity into their
bright futures, through the Bobs For Good gift of South African made, brand new, robust,
100% leather school shoes.
Bobs For Good actively contributes to Enterprise Development by ensuring that our shoes
are made right here in South Africa by previously disadvantaged women. This proves Bobs
For Good’s commitment to Enterprise Development by creating secure, stable jobs for
more South Africans while boosting the local economy.
Bob Skinstad’s Put Foot Rally Mission? To shoe kids! No no! Not beat up some poor kiddies!
Bobs for Good are going to put brand new, 100% leather school shoes onto the bare feet of
hundreds and hundreds of young underprivileged learners along the Put Foot Rally route in 2011.
Bobs for Good has been recognised by the South African Government and endorsed by
Provincial Education Departments for its role in improving the lives and safety (Health and
Wellness) of over 15,000 children to date while making a positive impact on the upliftment of
children in the classroom (Education).
The Put Foot Rally gives you the chance to get involved and play a hands-on role in changing the
lives of young African kids across Southern Africa.
