Well, don’t really get “mad.” Join Make A Difference (MAD) for a charity climb of Mt. Kilimanjaro!
This July, Adventures Within Reach is excited to sponsor MAD as they try and raise money for the children of Tanzania. All contributions go towards helping local children attend a great school in Himo, Tanzania for a year. That includes everything from a uniform, classes taught in English, two meals a day, and transportation to school from the orphanage. This is a win-win situation for everyone involved.
