Who needs a reason to Get Involved?
27th June 2012
Exodus clients Carol and Neil are taking up the challenge to summit Stok Kangri at 6,141m (20,147ft) for charity, as well as to celebrate a special birthday.
They have been supporting the Tibet Relief Fund (TRF) for many years as it runs numerous healthcare, education, self-sustainability and development projects as well as a sponsorship programme for Tibetan children, monks, nuns and the elderly in exile in India and Nepal.
Carol and Neil are hoping to conquer this 20,000ft trekking peak with Exodus, so they are kindly splitting the monies they raise between TRF and Exodus’ very own Himalayan Community Support Project. This small-scale, practical project helps local communities and preserves or improves the environment, whilst giving the maximum possible long-term economic benefit.
Click here to sponsor Carol and Neil - the two trekkers are aiming to eliminate the use of plastic water bottles by trekkers and locals in the Markha Valley.
