Whilst we are self funding our trek to try and climb Kilimanjaro for the experience and the challenge, we would love to use our trip to try to raise some money to give back to the local community of Tanzania and the surrounding area. Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain in Africa standing at 5895 metres high. We have been training hard but know that the altitude will be our biggest challenge and one that is difficult to prepare for! Thank you in advance for any help you can give us.
