Climb Kilimanjaro for Kids 2008

Options
Hi, my name is Eleanor Smith and i am posting this on my mums account as voucher_fairy. I am currently at Leeds College of Art and Design studying for my Degree in Fine Art.

In June this year, i will be attempting a sponsored climb of Mount Killimanjaro in Africa. My aim is to raise £2000. This money will be donnated to ChildReach International.

Childreach International was Founded in 2003, and is a children's charity that works with communities in some of the world's poorest regions, helping them to give their children a brighter future. Thanks to their support children are able to escape poverty and reach their full potential. They believe, as I do that:
*Every child has the right to enough food, clean water and shelter
*Every child has the right to a good education
*Every child has the right to a good health service
*Every child has the right to live in a loving environment without fear of abuse or violence.

My mum suggested I post the link to my JustGiving page here. If anybody feels they could help, please do so here www.justgiving.com/eleanorsmith1

Thanks for reading Eleanor xx

  • good luck with your fundraising Eleanor :) hope your training is going well! I am trekking the inca trail in may this year so know what you are going through! looking at your justgiving page we have both raised a similar amount too :)

    I am organising a sponsored walk to raise money, that way I can train and fundraise at the same time, my friends and I are walking from southampton to winchester (14 miles) and back again over a weekend and they have agreed to get sponsored to help me raise money, perhaps you could do something similar.

    I am also having a carboot sale where friends and family are donating unwanted items for me to sell which I am hoping will go well

    Once again good luck and I hope everything goes well! hope you have some comfy walking boots!
    finally debt free and want to keep it that way!!
  • Hi, thanks for the support. I'm doing similar things to try and raise the funds...coffee morning, disco, face painting and lots of sponsored stuff at uni!

    Good luck with your trek, i think walking boots are to be my next investment!!
