Although I live in San Diego, your organizer, Lisa, was kind enough to let me act as a guest organizer for this international meetup.

To challenge myself in my 65th year (21 as a vegan), I plan to summit Mt. Kilimanjaro on March 1, 2018.

To join me on this quest, I’ve been recruiting a compatible group of very fit vegan adventurers. We currently have 16 climbers from around the world and are seeking up to 14 more.

If you'd like to meet the team, visit http://www.facebook.com/vegankili.

Besides fulfilling personal goals, this will be an opportunity to promote to the world what can be achieved on a strictly plant-based diet, and I have been and will be seeking international publicity for our group’s aims and progress.

Concerned with cross-contamination and uncomfortable dining around others eating animal products, I’ve arranged with a very reputable guide company, http://www.ultimatekilimanjaro.com, to provide a 100% vegan mess tent with all new eating utensils and cooking gear.

The capstone of the trek will be the unfurling of a banner at the foot of the famous Uhuru Peak summit sign promoting the life-saving mission of PCRM’s Barnard Medical Center.

If Kilimanjaro is on your bucket list and you would like detailed information on costs and logistics, please email me at [email protected].

Please share this with any fellow vegans who you think might be interested.

Best,
