Dear Everyone I Know,

On 8th July I am climbing  Mount Kilimanjaro with three school friends.

I am sure we will manage to get to the top.  It takes five days of climbing to reach the summit and then two days to get down again.

I have decided to raise money for Professor Kefah Mokbel's charity, Breast Cancer Hope.  This charity uses its funds to research early detection, treatment and prevention of the disease.

Professor Mokbel is the surgeon who operated on Mummy eight years ago when she had a mastectomy and he has also operated on some of her friends, most recently Cindy, whose cancer had spread to her lymph glands.  Cindy has completed her chemotherapy now and is well on the way to recovery and this is all thanks to Professor Mokbel.

I hope you will support me by sending some sponsorship money to my site at Just Giving.

With best wishes,

Yours sincerely,

Phoebe
