Story
Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
On October 5th myself and 5 others will aim to climb to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, not only is it a wonderful opportunity to raise money for a charity doing incredible work with orphans but its also a personal goal of mine.
Kilimanjaro is the worlds tallest freestanding Mountain at 5,895m (19,341 ft). The 6 day trek takes us through rainforests, moorlands, the lunar desert before reaching the ice fields and onto the highest point in Africa where temperatures can reach as low as - 25c.
We will be raising money for the Fine and Country Foundation which in turn supports YAAPHA (Youth in Action Against Poverty and HIV/Aids). YAAPHA is a non-profit organisation working in mainland Tanzania with the orphans and vulnerable children who have lost parents and close relatives as a result of HIV/Aids. Once we have completed the climb we will be visiting YAAPHA to understand how the money you raise effects these young people's lives.
Even the smallest donation will go along way to help change their lives so please help me in exceeding my total.
Many thanks,
Charles
