Welcome to the Limerick Climbs Kilimanjaro 2022 campaign! These incredible students are taking on the challenge of a lifetime all whilst helping in the fight against meningitis and septicaemia.

Story

In August 2022 I will be climbing Kilimanjaro with a couple more UL students. My climb is in aid of the Meningitis Research Foundation. Meningitis and neonatal sepsis are the second biggest infectious killer of children under the age of five on the planet, affecting more than 5 million people every year! 

I have paid for the costs of my trip so 100% of all donations go to charity. 

I will be holding a raffle of which prizes include a signed munster Jersey, various old inter County jerseys, hampers and vouchers. It will be €10 per ticket and can be entered via donating on this page. Please leave your name and email address or phone number alongside your donation or if you prefer to stay anonymous you can direct message me your details. I will also be organising a walk in Scarragh woods (Cahir) on the 29th of May. Donations of any size are greatly appreciated. 

Thank you for your support

Meningitis is deadly; killing and seriously disabling in hours. Small children and young adults are high risk, but all ages can be affected. Globally 1,000 people die daily. We fundraise to invest in research, campaign for vaccines, provide symptom information and support those already affected.
