Story

<p>&nbsp;</p> <div style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;"><br>We will be climbing Mount&nbsp;<span class="J-JK9eJ-PJVNOc" style="background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: yellow; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">Meru</span>&nbsp;(4,565 metres, 14,977 ft) and Mount Kilimanjaro - Africa's highest mountain (5,893 metres or 19,334 ft), the highest freestanding mountain in the world. It's not an easy task. It takes 9 days to climb both mountains, 120 km to walk. We will be sleeping in tents, facing temperatures as low as minus 20 degrees and tackle the risk of altitude&nbsp;sickness.&nbsp;</div> <div style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;"></div> <div style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;">We're financing the whole trip ourselves, including all the equipment but we thought it would be a great opportunity to raise some money for Tanzania Development Trust. The trust was funded in 1975 and since then is supporting various projects that aim to relieve poverty and improve health in Tanzania.&nbsp;</div> <div style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;"></div> <div style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;">Your support would be greatly appreciated.&nbsp;</div> <div style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;"></div> <div style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;">http://www.<span class="J-JK9eJ-PJVNOc" style="background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: yellow; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">tanzdevtrust</span>.org&nbsp;</div> <div style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;"></div> <div style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;">Many thanks,</div> <div style="font-family: arial; font-size: small;"><span class="J-JK9eJ-PJVNOc" style="background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: yellow; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">Agnieszka</span>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;<span class="J-JK9eJ-PJVNOc" style="background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: yellow; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">Marcin</span></div> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
