Fundraising Trek to the Summit: Mt Kilimanjaro
My love for adventure is joined with my passion for Africa in my next challenge, which will test my boundaries and comfort. I have my sights set to climb one of the Seven Summits. Mount Kilimanjaro to be specific! Please consider making a donation, small or large. WE can help improve the quality of life for many through Mercy Corps: clean drinking water costs £15 and £21 buys a chicken (eggs). The opportunities are vast for us to improve the health, education, farming, and more!
