Barry and Chris Finlay from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada successfully climbed Mount Kilimanjaro in January 2009 and have since raised enough money, in conjunction with Plan Canada, to provide access to clean water and classrooms for a community in Tanzania. They are now embarking on a project to help youth and women ages 15-24 in Tanzania to establish businesses. Read about their journey in their book, Kilimanjaro and Beyond. This Blog describes upcoming events and how you can help.

Epilogue is Written
Yes, the epilogue is written and sent to the editor and I am pleased to say that this story has a happy ending. After our recent trip to Tanzania, it could not be anything else. There will always be a special place in my heart for Tanzania and I am not sure why. I think it is the people. We have met some amazing people and their will, determination and friendliness in the face of mostly desperate conditions are an inspiration. We will probably go back again some day.
