My story

11 climbers on the summit of Mt Kilimanjaro on

11.11.11 having generated

£111,111 sponsorship for Kenyan street kids and orphans

WE MADE IT! 11 on the mountain; 6 got to the summit!!!

THE CHALLENGE:

To get 11 (at least) people to do a sponsored climb of Mt Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest mountain, and the largest free-standing volcano on earth. The objective is to arrive at the snow-capped summit on 11.11.11 – the 11th November, 2011.

WHY?

To raise funds that are vital to helping care for African street children and orphans. Footsteps International already has a superb track record of bringing hope to hundreds of hopeless children, but desperately needs funds to continue its work.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
