Climb for Cancer

Hi! I am raising money for an incredible organization called Radiating Hope! Radiating Hope is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization founded by radiation oncologists and mountain climbers wanting to help cancer patients around the world, our goal is to raise money to provide and update radiation equipment in countries where radiation therapy and cancer care is hard to find, and optimal treatments are sparse. We will create sustainable change as we educate communities, preserve cultural values, and build community relationships. One way we will raise money for the project is through our mountain climbing guide services. Climbers raise tax deductible pledges to purchase a climbing package. The money raised is used to purchase and update radiation equipment for developing countries.

We will be embarking on this adventure next March 2014 to Tanzania to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro. Along the way we will be carrying prayer flags. After the climb, we will be breaking ground on a brand new cancer center in an area where 41 million are without cancer care!

Please join me in supporting an amazing organization and opportunity to serve. Thanks in advance for any support! All donations go directly towards the organization, NOT for my personal travel expenses.

We also raise money through selling Tibetan pray...er flags, which have long represented health, strength and hope. Cancer patients and their families can purchase a prayer flag in the patient's honor and a designated climbing team will carry the flag on their expeditions, flying the flag at the peak.
