Well, we are off again on another Adventure!  Although this one has a special added twist.  There have been a few of us that have talked about doing Mt. Marcy (highest point in NY) and have never gotten around to getting it done.  

The other day I found a charity event doing just that and benefitting kids with Aids in Africa.  Didn't take much to persuade me and a few others to get our climbing shoes on again and start raising money for Climb Up so Kids Can Grow Up.  www.climbupsokidscangrowup.com

We will be making our climb on July 8.  Yes, we always wait to the last minute to things done- you must all know me so well - good under pressure!

Getting to climb and raise awareness for a good cause are two of my passions, so this is easy for me.  Asking people for money - well that's another story.  I do believe that the more you give of yourself to others - either in time or money will not make you a better person, but make you feel better about the person you are.  Being able to share your talents or your share your worth is the optimal gift we can give of ourselves.

So if you aren't ready to climb with us (yet!) and want to be a part of this great event, please know that your donation is going to a good cause and that you have added to making this world a better place - one step at a time, one child at a time!

Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts. and since we are down to one month to raise $ and awareness!

Many thanks for your support and helping the kids in Africa!
