Lesotho has been severely afflicted by HIV/AIDS and over 100,000 children have lost one or both parents to AIDS. Without treatment, 90% of HIV+ children die before they are 5 and one third before they are 1 year old.

All of the money I raise will go towards (i) providing medical treatment for children with HIV/AIDS in Lesotho; (ii) setting up rural mobile health clinics so that mothers can deliver their babies safely; and (iii) providing injections to mothers to stop them passing HIV to their unborn baby. Vodafone's target is to support all 41,000 currently living with HIV/AIDS 

A few facts about the challenge:

• 969 miles over 9 days - or around 108 miles a day
  
• I will climb 15,000 metres over 9 days ( or 13 times up Alpe d'Huez)
• no comfy bed at the end of each day - we will be camping!

Please support me in my challenge - your donations will spur me on and every pound donated will make a difference to children in Lesotho

Many thanks

Kerry
