Grace Mwatate Children's Home

Some of the most memorable moments happen away from the race. At Grace Mwatate Children's Home and Rescue Centre, we stopped to meet the children, share the story of the rally, and give a little back.

A legacy beyond the rally

Through our dedicated CSR Fund, we support children's education, healthcare, and community projects for the people and communities we meet.

Local impact

Supporting farming communities

To date, we've contributed KES 1.8 million to local businesses and farming communities along the route. It means we leave a positive impact long after the dust has settled.

The Classic Rally is not only a thrilling off-road adventure race that captivates motorsport enthusiasts from around the world but also an event with a lasting impact on the local communities of Kenya and Tanzania.
