This October I have chosen to complete a 5895m trek to the peak of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, the tallest mountain in Africa, in support of one of World Federation Aid's projects.

To work towards creating a world free from suffering, where everyone has access to basic human rights, like clean water, I will be raising money for Ali Asghar Water Appeal which aims to provide clean water to families in Pakistan, India and Kenya.

Shallow well (Pakistan/India) = £200

Deep well (Pakistan/India) = £600

Rural well (Kenya) = £1775

Every year WF-AID works to implement sustainable water and sanitation solutions for water scarce communities. This allows the local community to work their way out of poverty in a number of ways by providing the ability to live a cleaner lifestyle, the chance to grow crops for themselves and to sell at markets, and the opportunity to use the time saved from searching for water in working or gaining an education instead.

I would be grateful for your support towards this project as I prepare to embark on the most physically and mentally challenging experience of my life (yet!).

Your donations will be helping those in need as I will be covering the cost of my trip, ensuring any donations made will go towards WF-AID's Project.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story and supporting my Kili climb and Ali Asghar Water Appeal.
