*** Because Moving Mountains is a registered charity in Ireland, we are unable to provide tax receipts to Canadian donors. We hope that you will find it in your heart to look past this technical detail and find the true reason why we give.

Donations are made in pounds sterling (£ GBP), so it might be useful to use a currency convertor before donating. Try this one. http://www.XE.com/ucc

 

Please read on to learn more about the people of Solio, Moving Mountains and our FindingLife initiative.

This April, The Garnier FindingLife Expedition to Africa is supporting Moving Mountains and the community of Solio in Kenya. 

The community of Solio  has faced tremendous challenges over the past many years and are currently rebuilding their lives. They have struggled to exist. This year we are supporting the work of the Moving Mountains Trust who thankfully stepped in and began helping these people. Their vision is one that enables the people of Solio to eventually support themselves. We are asking for all of you to help us make a difference in their lives. There is much to be done and all of us have the potential to make a tangible difference that we can watch unfold before our eyes.

6 high school students chosen from across Ottawa and the surrounding areas will travel to Kenya this April, team up with 6 Kenyan students, support the community in Solio, build a classroom, go on a Safari and challenge themselves to climb to the 2nd highest point in Africa - Mt. Kenya. All in the name of charity.

Building on the success of Expedition 2010 to Mt. Everest, thousands will follow online back home via social media sites, satellite technology, video conferencing, webisodes, blogs and more. Together,  we can make a huge difference in the lives of the people of Solio.

We need your help. To move a mountain is to create a permanent change in a community. Together, WE are Moving Mountains!

Your generosity is deeply appreciated. 

On behalf of Moving Mountains and the people of Solio.... Thank you!

 

From our hearts to yours,

The FindingLife team

En avril prochain, l'expédition en Afrique Garnier

FindingLife  donne son appui à Déplacer des montagnes (Moving Mountains) et à la communauté de Solio au Kenya.

 

 

Dans les dernières nombreuses années, la communauté de Solio a dû faire face à des défis magistraux et sont en train de rebâtir leur vie. Ils se sont acharnés à survivre pour leur existence. Cette année, nous donnons notre appui au travail de Moving Mountains Trust qui, heureusement, s'est impliquée et a commencé à aider ces gens. Nous vous demandons, à tous, de nous aider à faire une différence dans leur vie. Il y a beaucoup à faire et nous avons tous le potentiel de faire une différence tangible qui s'actualisera visiblement devant nos yeux.

 

Du fait que Moving Mountains est un organisme de charité enregistré en Irlande, nous ne pouvons pas fournir des relevés d'impôts aux donateurs canadiens. Nous espérons que vous découvrirez dans le fond de votre coeur la force de surpasser ce détail technique et que vous continuerez à donner généreusement dans l'honneur du vrai don de charité envers notre prochain.

 

 

Six étudiants d'écoles secondaires choisis soigneusement dans la région d'Ottawa et ses alentours voyageront au Kenya en avril prochain, s'associeront à six étudiants kéniens, viendront en aide à la communauté de Solio, construirons des salles de classe, participeront à un safari et surmonteront le défi d'escalader le deuxième mont le plus élevé en Afrique, le Mont Kenya. Tout ceci dans un esprit de charité.

 

 

 

Du plus profond de notre coeur au vôtre,

L'équipe de FindingLife
