Mt. Kilimanjaro Charity Hike

This summer I will be hiking Kilimanajaro with my mother as a charity hike.  In 2014 I did some volunnteer work in Tanzania at Tuleeni Orphanage and since then have stayed connected with the wonderful people there. This hike will support the Neema International Education Sponsorship Program (NIESP).  As a teacher myself I have seen how improtant education is and how empowering it can be. It is something I am truly passionate about and believe everyone should have access to it!  Education isn't something that we should take for granted, and in Tanzania I have seen first hand how excited kids are when they get to go to school.  They make the most out of their opporutnity to learn because they know it is a prividelge and a bridge to changing their own lives.

Currently  NIESP supports almost 200 children. Through NIESP each child receives a quality education, clothes, medical support and all of the supplies they need for school. We hope through the 3rd Annual Charity climb we will be able to provide even more children with the education they deserve and help them achieve all of their dreams.

All the money raised will go towards NIESP and the Climb up Kilimanjaro. Any little help is greatly appreciated. I am beyond excited and grateful for this opportunity, and that I will get to share the experience with my Mother who also is an educator.
