Ellie climbs Kilimanjaro

Student Challenges Kilimanjaro 2020 · 20 August 2020 to 5 September 2020 ·
In September 2022 I will be climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, the worlds tallest freestanding mountain, and the highest point in all of Africa. My climb is in aid of the Meningitis Research Foundation; a charity which aims to research and raise awareness of two serious diseases, Meningitis and Septicaemia. Shockingly, meningitis and neonatal sepsis are the second biggest infectious killer of children under the age of five on the planet. They can kill you within 12 hours and are responsible for more deaths of children under 5 than malaria, measles, tetanus and AIDS combined. The Meningitis Research Foundation provides better access to vaccines, health systems that can diagnose and treat children, and support to survivors of meningitis. Its time to make meningitis a global health priority, and you can do this today by donating using the give now button!
I have aspired to climb Mount Kilimanjaro for a while now I am so grateful to have been given the opportunity to do this challenge for such an important cause. I really appreciate any donation big or small and if you could share my page to spread the word in aid of reaching my target that would be much appreciated too! X
