What You'll Do
Oh my fjord! You and a friend are being whisked away to Bergen, Norway for the adventure of a lifetime. Surrounded by mountains, fjords, sea and sky, Bergen is every traveler’s dream. And you’ll have $1,000 to make your dream come true! Step back in time and visit the wooden houses of Bryggen, the colorful and charming UNESCO® World Heritage Site. Hop on a ferry and take in the wildlife, waterfalls and—of course—the gorgeous fjords that make Norway so special. Need to refuel in between museum-hopping, kayaking or hiking? Head to the old market square or a cozy cafe by the harbor for the most delicious seafood you’ll ever taste. No matter what you choose to do, you’re in for the time of your life. Flights, hotel and $1,000 included!
No donation or payment is necessary to enter or win this sweepstakes.
Who You'll Help
Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is an independent humanitarian organization that delivers medical care to those affected by violence, disease, malnutrition, exclusion from health care and catastrophic events. Your generosity will allow MSF’s team of over 41,500 doctors, nurses, midwives, epidemiologists, water-and-sanitation experts and many others to reach their patients and continue their life-saving work. Today, that includes treating severely malnourished children in Niger, running emergency surgical programs for victims of landmines and bombings in war-torn Yemen and tackling an Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
