Dear Friends,
I have recently decided to climb Mount Kilimanjaro as a personal challenge and to raise funds for a good cause.
Please help make this trip a success and make a difference to children's lives by donating generously.
Who are we? Why do we do this?
This is a trip organized by volunteers of the PCRF. We love to take on challenges and explore the world. With the exciting story of climbing Kilimanjaro, we want to spread awareness about PCRF’s initiatives, support its work through fundraising and contribute to helping injured and affected children in Palestine and Syria.
How can I participate?
The trip is open to all who want to participate in this challenge and fundraising campaign. Each climber will have to commit to raising $15,000 before 24th December 2014, the day we start our adventure! If you cannot make it on the trip but would like to fundraise for the campaign or help a friend reach their goal, you can do that by clicking on "Become a fundraiser". All funds raised will be used to support the PCRF’s medical missions, treatment abroad programs and humanitarian projects.
Why Kilimanjaro?
Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain in Africa and the highest free-standing mountain in the world at 5,895 metres or 19,341 feet above sea level. This fact makes Mount Kilimanjaro one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Africa and part of the 7 summits challenge; the feat of climbing the highest mountain on every continent. Kilimanjaro has five distinct climate zones each occupying a range of approximately 1000m of altitude. This will be an extraordinary journey, it is “in some way like traveling from the equator to the pole, with increasing altitude providing a very distinct range of climate zones, from tropical rainforest to moorland, alpine desert and finally to the polar conditions of the summit.” We were inspired by the PCRF amputee children who participated in the Climb Of Hope last year. We want to start a trend of summiting heights and rough terrains as a reminder of the challenges that our children in Palestine and Syria face every day.
