Kilimanjaro 2015 | Helping Kili Cancer

4/14/2015

Comments

 
Kilimanjaro 2015 - This year we had 100% of our climbers reach the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro, 19,341 feet. This was an 8 day journey to the rooftop of Africa. This is the fourth time Radiating Hope has been on Kilimanjaro.

The purpose of this annual climb is, as Dr. Larry Daugherty stated, "We're building a cancer center in East Africa because we believe that dignity and hope aren't western commodities reserved for the global elite; they are human rights that should be made available to all."

One of our climbers, Colby Thackery, reached the all-time fundraising record! Colby is Incredible! He climbed in honor of his mom, carrying her prayer flag to the summit.

After coming off the summit Colby said, "Top of Kili . . . . hardest thing I've ever done. BY FAR! Wanted to stop a number of times after 18000' but my mom never stopped. So that wasn't an option. Literally had a hard time at the top putting one foot in front of the other."
