<div>11 BLIND CLIMBERS. ONE MOUNTAIN. ONE WORLD RECORD.
</div>
<div>WHAT IF THE ONLY THING STANDING BETWEEN SOMEONE AND GREATNESS… WAS THE WORLD’S DOUBT?
</div>
<div>ON OCTOBER 7, 2025, AT 5:45 A.M., HISTORY WAS MADE ON THE SLOPES OF MOUNT KILIMANJARO AS 9 BRAVE BLIND MOUNTAINEERS TOOK OFF FROM THE FINAL BASE CAMP TO SUMMIT THE MOUNTAIN.  LATER THAT AFTERNOON, 9 BLIND CLIMBERS—PART OF AN ORIGINAL TEAM OF ELEVEN—REACHED THE SUMMIT OF UHURU PEAK (19,341 FT / 5,895 M) AND SET A NEW WORLD RECORD AS THE LARGEST GROUP OF BLIND INDIVIDUALS EVER TO SUMMIT MOUNT KILIMANJARO TOGETHER.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>THEY DID MORE THAN CONQUER AFRICA’S TALLEST MOUNTAIN.
</div>
<div>THEY SHATTERED EXPECTATIONS AND PROVED, ONCE AND FOR ALL, THAT DISABILITY IS NOT INABILITY.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>THE JOURNEY TO THE SUMMIT
</div>
<div>CLIMBING MOUNT KILIMANJARO IS A CHALLENGE FOR ANYONE. THIN AIR. EXTREME ALTITUDE. PHYSICAL EXHAUSTION. MENTAL RESOLVE.
</div>
<div>NOW IMAGINE DOING IT WITHOUT SIGHT.
</div>
<div>THESE CLIMBERS—COMING FROM ACROSS NORTH AMERICA—TOOK ON THE LEMOSHO ROUTE, ONE OF THE MOST DEMANDING PATHS TO THE SUMMIT. OVER SIX GRUELING DAYS, THEY PUSHED THROUGH STEEP ASCENTS, FREEZING TEMPERATURES, AND PHYSICAL EXHAUSTION—RELYING ON TRUST, TEAMWORK, AND UNWAVERING DETERMINATION.
</div>
<div>EARLY ON SUMMIT MORNING, AS THE WORLD SLEPT, THEY CLIMBED INTO HISTORY.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>THE WORLD RECORD HOLDERS
</div>
<div>THE BLIND CLIMBERS WHO REACHED THE SUMMIT AND SET THIS HISTORIC WORLD RECORD ARE:
</div>
<div>•	WALTER T. RAINERI – SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA, USA
</div>
<div>•	PHILIP ASHLEY – COLUMBUS, OHIO, USA
</div>
<div>•	DAVE BROWN – TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA
</div>
<div>•	KRISTIE COLTON – MOUNTAIN VIEW, CALIFORNIA, USA
</div>
<div>•	DESIRAE DIONNE – ALBERTA, CANADA
</div>
<div>•	SUSAN BUETI HILL – BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS, USA
</div>
<div>•	JACK MCCORMICK – TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA
</div>
<div>•	PETER QUAIATTINI – CALGARY, ALBERTA, CANADA
</div>
<div>•	TALHA SAJUN – TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA
</div>
<div>EACH OF THEM CARRIED MORE THAN GEAR UP THE MOUNTAIN.
</div>
<div>THEY CARRIED HOPE, REPRESENTATION, AND POSSIBILITY FOR MILLIONS.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>MORE THAN A CLIMB — A MOVEMENT
</div>
<div>THIS EXPEDITION WAS ENTIRELY SELF-FUNDED BY ALL 11 ORIGINAL CLIMBERS. THEY BELIEVED IN THE MISSION ENOUGH TO INVEST IN IT .
</div>
<div>NOW, THEY ARE ASKING FOR YOUR HELP TO ENSURE THE WORLD SEES WHAT HAPPENED ON THAT MOUNTAIN.
</div>
<div>A PROFESSIONAL DOCUMENTARIAN JOINED THE TEAM TO CAPTURE EVERY MOMENT—THE STRUGGLE, THE FEAR, THE TRIUMPH, AND THE RAW EMOTION OF A WORLD RECORD BEING ACHIEVED AGAINST ALL ODDS.
</div>
<div>THE RESULT WILL BE A 40-MINUTE PROFESSIONALLY PRODUCED, NARRATED DOCUMENTARY THAT BRINGS THIS HISTORIC ACHIEVEMENT FROM THE MOUNTAIN TO THE WORLD—SHOWING WHAT IS POSSIBLE WHEN VISION GOES BEYOND SIGHT.
</div>
<div>WHY YOUR SUPPORT MATTERS
</div>
<div>THIS DOCUMENTARY IS BEING SPONSORED THROUGH VISION, A U.S. NONPROFIT DEDICATED TO ENHANCING THE LIVES OF PEOPLE WHO ARE BLIND OR VISUALLY IMPAIRED THROUGH FITNESS AND SAILING INITIATIVES.

</div>
<div>•	INSPIRE FUTURE GENERATIONS TO PURSUE BOLD DREAMS
</div>
<div>•	DEMONSTRATE THAT LIMITS EXIST TO BE BROKEN
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>OUR GOAL: $12,000
</div>
<div>WE ARE ALMOST THERE—AND YOUR SUPPORT CAN PUSH THIS PROJECT ACROSS THE FINISH LINE.
</div>
<div>YOUR DONATION WILL HELP:
</div>
<div>•	COVER THE COST OF THE PROFESSIONAL FILMMAKER JOINING THE EXPEDITION
</div>
<div>•	PRODUCE AND DISTRIBUTE THE DOCUMENTARY WORLDWIDE
</div>

</div>
<div>•	INCLUDE CLOSED CAPTIONS FOR DEAF AND HARD OF HEARING AUDIENCES

</div>
<div><br />
</div>

</div>
<div>YOU MAY NOT HAVE BEEN ON THE MOUNTAIN—BUT YOU CAN STILL BE PART OF HISTORY.
</div>

</div>

</div>
<div>NO SIGHT. NO LIMITS. JUST THE SUMMIT.
</div>
<div><br />
