Schweizer Chirurgen in Äthiopien

BT 2024: Peltzer Jörg

CHF

Accident or trauma is the number one cause of death and disability in Africa. That is why I have been committed for decades to keeping a training hospital for trauma surgery in Jimma functional. GO STAR is the only point of contact and hope for adequate treatment for 25 million people. These bike tours allow me to show our sponsors the beauty but also the misery of Africa and enable them to visit our hospital, where we finance an operation with 30 francs.

BT 2019: Babst Reto

CHF

This project is very important to my hospital and to me, which is why we always send staff to Jimma to support the local team. The first Charity Tour 2012 was a unique experience with the visible and tangible experience of using the effort and donation.

BT 2024: Tollinger Judy

CHF

I'm so lucky that I met Pele (my white brother).
With joy I support Pele in his actions to bring the donors closer to Ethiopia and to support them in convincing this project in the best possible way.
His training program for trauma surgeons is unique in Africa, many accidentally injured Ethiopians have already been helped and unnecessary amputations prevented.
Every time I think about it, I see an improvement and a hope for Ethiopia. I gladly took on these tasks:
Tollinger Judy - Organization GoStar Medical Center in Jimma, organization of GoStar bike tours through Ethiopia

With much pleasure, I show everyone the diversity and beauties of Ethiopia
I would like to thank everyone who contributes to this project through donations or personal dedication. Less

BT 2019: Herzog Hugo

CHF

The commitment of the Foundation impressed me again and again. With the help of accident surgery, it offers many young people in rural areas career prospects and thus also prevents these young people eventually seek their personal future as refugees in Europe.

BT 2024: Willemin Olivier

CHF

The meeting with Pelé about 15 years ago was a real shock. I met a brother! of course, I accepted when he asked me to visit with him his foundation in Ethiopia.
What I saw with him in our hospital changed my life forever. When I saw the miracles he performed every day, I could not help but take part in this foundation.
Meanwhile we are in our 3rd adventure with great results for our fantastic foundation.
A real adventure to be human!

Baume Olivier, Director Less

BT 2019: Burri Nina

CHF

Despite my 35-year abstinence from cycling, I drive fully motivated in this adventure Ethiopia, because I am 100% convinced by the project and this can connect with my reputation as a snake woman, which you otherwise almost only experienced on stage.
I am looking forward to a country that is completely unknown to me and also to the steps there, which first include my full commitment as an ambassador, so that as many people as possible can be convinced to also make a financial contribution in favor of the accident victims.

BT 2024: Brütsch Thierry

CHF

I know Dr. Peltzer for more than 30 years. "Pelé", I happened to meet while skiing and have since done some trips and other sports activities with him.
For more than 12 years he has often spoken to me about the hospital in Jimma and the Swiss Surgeons Foundation in Ethiopia.
I participated in the previous adventure, which unfortunately could not develop as planned in Ethiopia. The idea of supporting a hospital in Ethiopia as much as I can afford is very important to me and I take part in the bike tour. Mountain biking across the country to raise funds for the operation, upgrading and upgrading of hospitals is also very motivating.
Thierry Brütsch, architect EPFL SIA, Gland Less

BT 2019: Castano Olga Evangelina Del Carmen

What inspires me to this challenge is especially the children, the love and the opportunity to do something to build the hospital in Jimma, which is so important to the people of Ethiopia.

CHF

My motto is: I'm pedaling for Ethiopia
I decided this year to contribute to the poorest in the world.
For this project, I will be on the go all year round with the bike looking for donations. It is my goal to make as many people as possible aware of these abuses of medical care and to motivate them for a donation. I am convinced that every donated franc will benefit the Trauma Surgery Hospital in Jimma. Get to know a group of like-minded people and people in Ethiopia.

I already had the opportunity to participate in both the Bike Tour 2012 and 2016. I can not miss this new adventure! It will undoubtedly bring me much joy and happiness.

A big thank you to Pelé and Olivier for the exemplary work they do. Less

BT 2019: Fiechter Elena

Through my uncle, Dr. Jörg Peltzer, I am familiar with the Gostar project since its beginnings. I was already active as the youngest participant in the last bike tour in 2016.
With my knowledge, my commitment and my passion, I accompany the tour as a nutritionist for the bikers. Again, the participants should be well supported in terms of nutrition. Less

BT 2019: Scheiwiller Philomena

A safe roof over the head, flowing warm and cold water, electricity at any time, shopping almost limitless, excellent medical care around the clock and much more is a matter of course for us.

BT 2024: Suard Richard

CHF

My meeting with Dr. Peltzer is dated 05.10. 2012 in the emergency department of Delémont. And yes, passionate about motor sport, my bike crossed a pole, conclusion: 2 legs with multiple fractures and risk of amputation. I am an example of the work and the man Jörg Peltzer does and what he does every day at the hospital and for the Foundation. After 12 operations, I normally come back and be part of this beautiful adventure. What better than to be at his side to thank him ... Thank you Pelé

BT 2024: Gürtler Martin

CHF

I practiced part of my professional activity in Cameroon, Namibia and Botswana many years ago and was thus able to experience how counterproductive a wrong, but also how constructively, the right development aid can be. The project "Swiss Surgeons for Ethiopia" by Dr. med. I know Jörg Peltzer as his longtime friend since the beginning and I am firmly convinced that this is the right way to give Ethiopia and thus Africa sustainable help for self-help.

I accepted the GoStar challenge to get myself back into shape after receiving a knee replacement in April 2018. The fact that I can accept a difficult challenge and help a humanitarian association seems to me to be ideal.
My friend 'Pelé' (Jörg Peltzer) has managed to persuade me to join the Biker Group for an incredible adventure. I am looking forward to this challenge and wish that many friends, people support the club by sponsoring this mountain bike tour.

BT 2019: Ronjat Gaspard

CHF

It was my meeting with dr. Jörg Peltzer, who has opened my eyes to the situation of medical infrastructure (and especially traumatology) in Ethiopia. His dedication, persistence and the emotion with which he spoke to me about his project have moved me and made it clear that this concern needs ambassadors far beyond the borders of Switzerland to promote this exceptional clinic project, which Dr. Peltzer has created and keeps alive for years.
I know that this incredible journey on the footsteps of Ethiopia will open my eyes to the reality of a fragile but magnificent country where every action, even the smallest, will have great consequences. I am proud to be part of this adventure.

As differently affected countries and the background of the crises are, they all have in common that the situation of health care is dramatic, especially among children. The team around the Gostar project in Jimma did a great job in 2018 on site. That's why I'm back!
