Story
Meet Estera
My name is Estera, I am 28 years old. I was born with a four-limb cerebral palsy (MPD). I can’t walk or sit alone, I'm in a wheelchair. I also have epilepsy. I need the constant help of at least one of my parents for everyday functioning. Despite my disability, I am very cheerful and full of life. I love reading books, painting, embroidering, going on trips to various interesting places and meeting friends. To be able to enjoy this, I need a systematic rehabilitation that is very expensive. Physiotherapy plays an important role in helping me living with Cerebral Palsy to achieve my goals and live life to the fullest. Regular exercise and massage sessions help to prevent contractures that cause increased muscle tension. Thanks to the care of specialists and professional equipment, I can improve my condition and become more independent.

A couple of months ago, I found out that one of our employee’s daughters suffers from the condition known as cerebral palsy. Her father Greg is one of the hardest working people I know. He proudly represents values of our company by having a great attitude and excellent working ethic. In order to give a little back to Greg I would like to invite you to support his daughter.
On the 20th of January 2018 I will be taking part in the 21 days Aconcagua mountain expedition. My preparation and training regime started in October 2017 and I look forward to successfully achieving this challenge. Although non-technical, the mountain is very challenging and the main obstacle is the high altitude and adverse weather Aconcagua is truly one of the greatest mountains in the world. At 22,840 feet (6962m) tall it is the highest mountain in the western hemisphere, and the tallest peak in the world outside of the Himalayas. It lies on the border between Argentina and Chile, gazing out over the southern Andean mountain range.
The whole challenge is self-funded; I am paying the full cost of the expedition. The money you give will go straight to Estera’s rehabilitation needs
Please join me in this incredible adventure by giving as much or as little as you can.
Thank you for your support!
