Story

Hi all,

Thanks a lot for visiting my page!

In July 08 I shall embark on the challenge of a lifetime and attempt to climb the highest free-standing mountain rise in the world - Kilimanjaro!

I'm sure you'll all agree that this is no mean feat and it's for a GREAT cause too! I'll be doing all the hard work so all you have to do to help make a difference is reach in to your pockets and please, give generously!

In addition to the climb I will also be volunteering in COCO camps in and around the Kilimanjaro region, so I will be able to give you all a first-hand account of where your money has gone and the difference it has made to so many children.

COCO challenged me to climb Kili and so now I'm challenging you to help me reach (and if possible surpass!) my fundraising target!

Many thanks in advance both personally and on behalf of COCO

Elaine x


(Oh and here's all the technical bladi blah:

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: COCO will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.)
