Story

Hey everyone, welcome to my fundraising page. I'm part of a team at Loughborough University raising money for Hope for Children by trekking Mount Kilimanjaro in August 2020! 

You're probably thinking I'm crazy by committing to this challenge and huge fundraising target in my final year of University but I am really looking forward to this huge milestone and treating it as a graduation reward!!... lol

So, Mount Kilimanjaro is at significantly high altitude with sub-zero temperatures which will be a huge physical and mental challenge, especially at 5895 metres !!!!!! I’ll have 6 days trekking (4.5 days up, and 1.5 days down).

Hope for Children is an amazing charity which helps so many children all across the world, so I am determined to help them by raising awareness of their brilliant work and give them the necessary funding they need to continue doing this! 

Any donation, big or small, would be massively appreciated and I can't thank you enough for your support!!!

Lots of love,

Jess xxx
