To Family, Friends and Corporate Sponsors!

Hello Everyone:

I'm fortunate enough to be able to go on a trip that quite frankly will be an adventure of a lifetime and more importantly, will help other children as a direct result. The goal is pretty simple. I'm trying to raise a dollar for every foot I climb - the catch is - the mountain that I'm trying to climb just happens to be the highest in Africa and the seventh highest in the world topping off at 19,340' (thank God it's not too technical).

The money that I raise will go towards two great causes. The first is an annual scholarship for a graduating senior at the Foxboro Regional Charter School. The second will be directed towards helping the Thomson Safari sponsored Friends of Tanzanian Schools that helps to fund schools around the Kilimanjaro area.

I already have a few corporate sponsors looking to help and I am hoping to get more. Thomson Safaris out of Watertown, MA (www.thomsonsafaris.com) will donate a portion of the cost of one of their trips - taken by you - to the scholarship fund and this could happen anytime over the course of the next year. In addition, Go Nutritional Products (www.go-energy-recovery.com) will be offering discounts on their products and 10% of what you buy from their website will go directly towards the scholarship fund. Remember to plug in KILI2008 for the promo code.

I can't do this without your assistance so I'm hoping you will help me and become part of the adventure of a lifetime that will ultimately help a lot of great kids.

All donations can be sent to:
