Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania may not be Everest, but it is still a serious undertaking!

In early Febuary 2013, a group of friends and I will be spending a week climbing what is, at nearly 6,000m, the highest mountain in Africa. Not only will it be a long, hard slog to the top, but there's also the lack of oxygen, the risk of altitude sickness and the sleeping in tents in sub-zero temperatures to consider - not to mention Bready's snoring!

The reason I'm doing this is because it is a great opportunity to challenge myself through a little adventure that, at the same time, will raise money for a very worthy cause.

I am funding the entire trip myself, so every penny/cent you donate will go to Shika (www.shika.org.uk) who are tranforming the lives of some of Tanzania's poorest people through their education programs.

I'm only going to be doing this once, so now is your chance to sponsor me - please donate what you can,

Thanks,

Chris
