Hello,
I have postponed my start time for this project, in light of what has happened in Japan. Right now, people's hearts go out to the Japanese, and will not give Peak 4 Poverty the attention and support this organization deserves. So, I'm going to pray for the Japanese, that they will get over this tragedy, and come back stronger than ever.

My First Blog.....
Hello! Thanks for visiting! Let me tell you a little about this blog. This is for a nonprofit organization called Peak 4 Poverty. P4P provides funding and supplies to orphanages in Tanzania, so the children can get an education, and get out of the vicious cycle of HIV and poverty. You should check out their site when you can.

I have personally seen the poverty and living conditions in East Africa, and NO ONE SHOULD LIVE LIKE THAT. For those who have never seen poverty at its lowest level, you should see The Constant Gardener with Rachel Weicz. Please help these kids out.
I am hoping to earn money by walking. My goal is to raise $500, but will be ecstatic if I am able to raise more. I will admit that I haven't exercised in a while, so this is a personal challenge as well, as I get in better shape. I ask all of my supporters to donate at least 25 cents for every mile that I walk; however, I do understand that sometimes it is not feasible to donate so much. In that case, if you are able to donate just 5 cents per mile, you will be able to fund at least 1 child's education, and get them out of the world of HIV, and poverty.
Right now, the site is only able to handle fixed donations. However, if you commit to donating a certain amount per mile, I will keep track for you. You will also be able to keep track through the meter on the right.
I have been blessed with a lot of things in my life, and it is time that I give back. Would you please help me? Thanks you!!
