Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
We would just like to take this opportunity to tell you about a challenge we are undertaking to raise money for the Make-A-Wish Charity.
On the 3rd of September 2011 we will begin a 7 day ascent of Mount Kilimanjara, the tallest freestanding mountain in the world and one of the famous Seven Summits. Kilimanjaro is actually a volcano, or rather three volcanoes, and rises to an altitude of 5,895 m above sea level.
Make-A-Wish mission statement: To grant magical wishes to children and young people fighting life-threatening illnesses and raise the funds necessary to grant those wishes.
- There are 20,000 children and young people living in the UK with a life-threatening illness.
- Make-A-Wish has granted 6,400 wishes over 25 years.
- This year alone 1,200 children will turn to us to have their special wish granted. And we want to grant a wish to every one of these.
- These wishes transform lives!
