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.
Kilimanjaro and Beyond will be officially released at 7 pm on August 25 at Collected Works, 1242 Wellington St., Ottawa, Ontario. Chris and I will both be there to talk about the book. Hope to see you there!
Live too far away to make it :) but wish you all the best, much success! Rae
ReplyDeleteI'll make note of it. I'm not sure if I'm in town or not toward the end of August, but if I am, I'll drop by.
