THE PHYSICAL TRAINING COMPANY

KILIMANJARO CHALLENGE 2021 

In aid of Foundation of African Empowerment, Enjoro Primary School

I have always encouraged students to set themselves challenges, take risks, and be the best they can be. To be authentic in my teaching I also have to show students when I take on challenges for myself. 

As part of a pretty fabulous team, I will be summitting Kilimanjaro in October! Not only are we raising money for a local school in Tanzania, I will be putting myself through an intense physical and mental challenge in the process.

Having my friends and family support me to do this means the world & it will surely be the extra motivation I will need at the end to ensure I make it to the top! Thanks for being a part of the biggest challenge I think I have ever set for myself!

Over the course of 6 days from 1st to 8th October, a group of challengers from the Physical Training Company will be climbing the Rongai route on Mount Kilimanjaro, summiting at 5,895m.

This challenge will support Enjoro Primary School through the Foundation of African Empowerment (FAE) a not-for-profit non-governmental organization dedicated to improving access to quality inclusive education for all children especially those with special educational needs and disabilities in Tanzania through providing support services, awareness raising and advocacy.

Please give generously in support of this great cause - all funds, whatever amount, are much needed and greatly appreciated.

Between the challengers, they aim to raise funds of over AED75,000.

The charity cycle is held in association with local not-for-profit Gulf for Good and is approved by the Islamic Affairs & Charitable Activities Department, Licence No. 4128.

50% of funds raised go to the FAE.

40% of funds raised go to Gulf for Good (NPO in the UAE and registered UK charity) for their sustainability.

10% of funds raised go to International Humanitarian City for their emergency response work.
