About our charity : Moving Mountains Moving Mountains
The charity nurtures and looks after street children in Kenya, promoting their education and a normal childhood, supporting their families and renovating slum schools. They also manage orphanages and are heavily involved with promoting and developing many communities the length and breadth of the country. In Nepal they run community projects in rural areas such as schools, hospitals and hydro electric schemes, to help preserve and promote the Sherpa way of life and the environment.

Our personal message:

This year I am back on Mount Everest, but also climbing Cho Oyu aswell. I am fundraising for my charity Moving Mountains which is doing so much good work in Kenya, Nepal and Niger.

Since starting the charity I have seen it grow to encompass a wide variety of aid - in Kenya two orphanages, a large HIV clinic, a rescue centre, a community centre, four schools, a feeding programme for 650 kids, a football team, family support for several dozen families, plus a hydro electric power plant in the Himalayas supporting an entire village with electricity and new businesses, a Buddhist monastery, a hospital in the Sahara Desert, an effective community health scheme in the Nairobi slums, and hundreds of children being assisted with education and with their lives.

If my climb of Everest and Cho Oyu - www.everestpost.com - can in any way persuade you to donate to this charity, then I would consider it a worthwhile venture. Anybody donating will be entered into an Everest Raffle (£3 per ticket), for which the first prize is £500.00.

Thank you for helping.
