MoonTrekker 2009 · 16 October 2009

Room to Read seeks to transform the lives of millions of children in developing countries by focusing on literacy and gender equality in education. Working with communities, partner organisations and governments, we develop literacy skills, a habit of reading, and support girls to complete school.

Story

Sian & Lee will be taking part in MoonTrekker 2009 on 16th October, a 25km endurance hike beginning at 11:20pm in Mui Wo, on Lantau Island.   Our challenge will be to complete the hike by 6.20am in time to watch the sun rise at the summit of Lantau Peak.

Moontrekker is in aid of Room To Read, who partner with local communities throughout the developing world to provide quality educational opportunities by establishing libraries, creating local language children's literature, constructing schools, and providing education to girls. They seek to intervene early in the lives of children in the belief that education empowers people to improve socioeconomic conditions for their families, communities, countries and future generations. Through the opportunities that only education can provide, they strive to break the cycle of poverty, one child at a time. 

Please help us to raise money for this great cause!
