Story

I will be hiking the 19,341 feet to the summit of Kilimanjaro September 9 - 21. I want to dedicate this hike to the children of Le Bonheur Children's Hospital. Will you join me by donating to help change a child's life? 

Located in Tanzania, Kilimanjaro is the fourth highest peak among seven summits. Every mile I hike, I will be thinking about the 500,000 children who seek care at Le Bonheur Children's Hospital every year. Every dollar I raise will go to help the life-saving work that takes place at Le Bonheur! 

As an Anesthesiologist at Le Bonheur, I have witnessed first hand the amazing work that takes place within it's walls. Every single person goes above and beyond to assure that every child who enters our doors receives the best possible pediatric care. 

We at Le Bonheur can't do it alone. We depend on the generous support of people like you. Their founders promised that the doors to Le Bonheur would always be open to children in need. 70 years later, they still honor that promise. 

Will you support me on my hike and donate today to help Le Bonheur provide the medical care and support kids need to get well?
