As some of you know, my beloved brother has been missing in Bolivia since September 9th. He set out to summit Sajama Peak, elevation 6,548m or 21,482 ft, and was last seen ascending up to the summit that afternoon.

After not hearing from him for several days, we reached out to the local search and rescue teams, which have searched the vast and challenging terrain for 6 days without any luck of finding any trace of him.

The costs of search and rescue have added financial stress to my parents and as you can imagine we are already devastated and heartbroken about this hopeless situation. So I am writing to you all for some help.
