Everest Quest 2013
Fundraising for Community Action Nepal
Fundraising for Community Action Nepal
Dear friends,
I am aiming to climb Everest this year and would like to use the event to raise funds for the local community through Community Action Nepal.
Have worked with them previously and they do increadible work in the local community by establishing school, hospitals and shelters for the Sherpa people.
I have chosen a specific project which is the establishment of a Porter centre at Gokyo Lakes in the Everest region which will provide medical services, weather shelter and a community center for porters who are often shamefully neglected by tour operators. You can find more details on their website http://www.canepal.org.uk/a-z-of-can-projects/gokyo-lakes/. Needless to say none of the funds will go towards my own cost.
Would highly appreciate your support to help the local community which unfortunately still counts as one of the poorest on our planet.
Many thanks for all your support,
Jan
