KILIMANJARO CHARITY CLIMB  2012

Join Global Seattleites in climbing Kilimanjaro for a special charity project and cultural program in 2012.

Climb for the School of Joy!

Through our Global Awareness Adventures to Tanzania we have had the unique opportunity to make lasting friendships with Maasai people. Upon learning more about the traditional ways of the Maasai, who are pastoralists and live in remote areas, we discovered that many children do not have easy access to a formal education. Those who do have the opportunity get thrown into the education system without any knowledge of Tanzania’s official language, Swahili.

You Can Make it Happen

Proceeds from the climb will allow long time dream of our Maasai friend and partner to become a reality. Ground breaking for the School of Joy has already begun. With your support, by 2013, Maasai children will be able to attend the School of Joy preschool, learning Swahili and getting prepared for cultural differences they will encounter in the outside world. You can help Maasai children be successful in school and to be proud of their culture and traditions by supporting this project.
