I am off to the Sanskar region of the Himalayas to climb a mountain of over 6'000m. I am doing this for a very special foundation that gives ill children in Switzerland respite from the daily routine of hospital treatments by granting them magical wishes. www.makeawish.ch
Having a wish granted gives HOPE, STRENGTH and JOY.
I survived cancer - twice - I am lucky and wish to support these extraordinary children who are facing their battle against illness with great courage and hope and the foundation that gives them great joy.
My climb is dedicated to them. Thank you for supporting me in this endeavour. - Alex.
