Kili Klimbers for Kids - March 2011

Snow-capped Mount Kilimanjaro, floating above the clouds is no doubt one of the most beautiful and impressive sights in the natural world. Even hard-boiled non-believers, in their unguarded moments, empathise with the Maasai who call it the “House of God”.

The mountain is one of the Seven Top Summits of the world –it has the highest point on the African continent. Though there are higher mountains, they form part of mountain ranges, Everest for example. But Kili, as it is popularly known, is the highest freestanding mountain in the world. It rises gently from 3,000 feet, reaches for the heavens and only halts after a 16,000 feet ascent. The diameter at the base is an amazing 64 kilometres.

Your donations allow us to buy all those extras, that enable us to provide not just a roof but a home to the children at Khaya Lokukhanya. We pay our Foster Mothers' above the going rates, as we believe that they are just as important to Khaya as the children, and we recognise that they must also be well cared for and rewarded for their hard work, day in day out. We have a private tutor to help children with learning difficulties, and we encourage the children to engage in as many after school projects as they can.

Much love,
