Leanne Troop is raising money for Child's i Foundation
Donations cannot currently be made to this page

Mount Kilimanjaro Climb · 26 March 2010 ·

We believe in families, not orphanages. We’re helping Uganda reimagine care so that no child anywhere need ever experience an orphanage again. We help repurpose orphanages into services that people really need, keeping families together, reuniting families or finding new ‘forever families’.

Story

(BTW I'm doing this in AUGUST - not March as page says - I can't change the date!!!)

Yes I've signed up to climb Mount Kilimanjaro which at 19,340ft  isn't an easy task. Months of training, temperatures of -15 and worst of all alltitude sickness - in fact 1/3 of people don't make it all the way due to this point. So..... I need your help! The more money I can raise the more determined I shall be to get all the way to the top.  Most importantly all the money raised on this page will be going to Child's i Foundation (not to fund the trek) - a charity set up to help put an end to the endemic problem of child abandonment in Uganda. Founder Lucy Buck gave up her successful career as TV Producer to set up this charity and help give abandoned babies a home.

Please see their website for futher info - http://www.childsifoundation.org/ 

I also have a facebook group setup - please check for progress, photos and news of fundraising events-
