Hi All,
Yes thats right I am doing silly things again - climbing mountains.
Why you might ask? In the words of George Mallory (Famous Everest Explorer)
'Because it is there'
There is a much better reason as we are climbing it to support the HIV orphan's of Kenya. Many of these children have lost one or both their parnets to HIV and AIDS. The Nasio Trust supports them by providing, food, education, clothing and medical care.
The charity started about 5 years ago supporting only 15 orphans from a run down shack. Today we support over 180 orphans with one purpose build centre and a second due to be opened on the 5th November 2009.
Please look at their website for further details: www.thenasiotrust.org
100% of any donation will go directly to the charty. The cost of the climb is funded separately.
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.
All the best,
Jonathan
