MY KILIMANJARO EXPERIENCE
I walked away feeling a great sense of accomplishment, not only because I reached the summit – but because I had fun doing it. I enjoyed every day and every moment on the mountain. I was inspired by its beauty, the strength of my teammates and the spirit of the Tanzanian Tusker team. It was truly the experience of a lifetime…and I am so glad I did it with CARE.
