Our Kilimanjaro Kidz in Tanzania love soccer – many of them play it, and most of them enjoy watching it and cheering on their favorite teams.
And, as you’re reading this, the world is buzzing with excitement around the FIFA World Cup.
What World Cup Soccer is Teaching
The practice and repetition surrounding a world-class athlete’s day to day is intense. Most of them, from early on, have dedicated major chunks of their lives to the discipline of training and competing in order to arrive at their current performance level.
We know education, in many ways, parallels athletics. To achieve great things, our students put in great effort. They take their failures and turn them into opportunities to grow.
We also know that those who commit themselves to their studies with discipline, surrounded by talented and dedicated “coaches” (teachers), will succeed at a level they might not have ever imagined without the support.
Where YOU Come In
Thank you for being part of this journey. YOUR support plays a critical role. Because of YOU, our students are in an environment being coached to greatness. And as we continue to seek out new Sponsors, we are also grateful, every day, for all of you who have stepped up. Thank you for answering the call to participate in a bright future where our children are empowered to achieve the goals they now have the confidence to set.
Meet Our Students
Meet this lovely burst of happiness and energy, Jennipher. She’s in Standard 3 at St. Luis English School this year. Jennipher is the third student in her family to enter the program; her older brothers, twins James and Jonas, have both successfully completed our program and continued on to college to become an accountant and a teacher. Their father, Grayson, is a medic on the mountain and accompanied us all on our 2019 ascent, as well as Amy’s 2025 climb.
Who’s Next?
We are only a few months away from our annual school fee disbursements. We are seeking 8 more sponsors in the next 60 days. If you haven’t yet sponsored – or if you’re already a sponsor and feel called to give a little more – we invite you to be part of what’s next.
