Kilimanjaro Charity Climb

Climb Kilimanjaro and raise money for a cause close to your heart

Do something amazing and take part in a Kilimanjaro Charity Climb. Do you as individual or small group want to climb Kilimanjaro for charity? Whether you are joining one of our open groups or are taking part in a private climb we are here to help you raise money for charity. 

Do you have a passion for a good cause and the courage to climb Kilimanjaro? If you do, we can arrange your Kilimanjaro charity climb. We can customise your itinerary, or you can simply join an open group. Choose your dates. Choose your route. There is no group size limit. We have arranged climbs for groups of more than 30 participants. Once the trip is confirmed, you can begin collecting for your chosen charity. 

It is our policy to only offer self funded climbs using charity donation platforms like Just-Giving. Setting up a fundraising page on a charity platform is very simple and provides a great way to collect and raise money for your chosen charity by promoting your challenge to friends, family and colleagues.

So what is the next step to your Kilimanjaro Charity Climb?

1. SIGN UP FOR A TREK

2. JUST GIVING PAGE

3. START FUNDRAISING

4. ONGOING SUPPORT

Sign-up to any of our standard open group Kilimanjaro treks, or create your own private trek.

Setup a fundraising page for your chosen charity e.g. JustGiving. Send us the url once you’ve done this.

Promote your charity challenge to friends, family and colleagues using social media.

We will give you support and motivation every step of the way. Contact us for any questions.

At KCC we will do our best to assist you when organising your charity climb, however, we do not take part in fundraising.

Although some charities already have tour operators organising their Kilimanjaro climbs, you do not have to use them. Occasionally some tour operators will charge more for a charity climb than they would on a regular climb, they could also offer a “free climb” however the money you raise in donations would go towards their expenses. Our advice is to shop around and find an operator you are happy with. At Kilimanjaro Climbing Company we have worked with many charities over the years and they will support you in your fund raising efforts no matter which tour operator you use.

Here are a couple of Kilimanjaro Charity Treks from this year

  • Mara Kati Kati is a mobile camp strategically situated in north Serengeti, ideal for exploring the Mara Ecosystem. The camp offers comfortable accommodation together with the unique opportunity to enjoy a real safari experience on a camp. In its comfortable tents one will feel completely immersed in the surroundings and one can enjoy the rich animal life and vegetation of the area.

    An original form of accommodation which resembles the old camps of the first explorers in Africa, with all the commodities of today.

    The camp has been designed to cause a minimum impact on the environment. All of the infrastructure is mobile and the philosophy of the company is not to leave anything behind.

    The tents at Mara Kati Kati are meticulously designed to blend the essence of classic safari adventures with modern comforts. Each tent is furnished with plush bedding, locally inspired décor, and ensuite bathrooms equipped with hot showers and eco-friendly toiletries. The subtle lighting, soft linens, and rustic yet sophisticated furnishings create an ambiance that seamlessly merges the raw beauty of the wilderness with the elegance of a homey accommodation.

    Experience the Wild…

    Welcome to Tarangire Simba Lodge, Tarangire National Park is a gem on the northern safari circuit. Teeming with wildlife, especially in the dry season, this area is a safari-goers dream. Located near the new Sangaiwe Gate of Tarangire National Park. Tarangire Simba Lodge is situated in a wildlife-rich area with unhampered views to beautiful Lake Burunge, bordered by the park and a Wildlife Management Area. The setting is stunning; with a giant old Baobab tree anchoring one corner and a permeating feeling of real Africa.

    The lodge opened in mid 2015 (July) and has 24 classic tents under thatch. Resident wildlife includes lion, zebra, bushbuck, impala, porcupine, monkeys, warthog, mongoose and more. Elephant, buffalo, ostrich and giraffe frequently pass through while the bird life is prolific and vibrant.

    Areas surrounding national parks are critical for conservation. The location of Tarangire Simba Lodge creates a buffer between the park and the nearby village areas, which, although currently sparse in population, are under cultivation and could be subject to human/wildlife conflict. We work closely with the rangers at the nearby station to ensure that the wildlife is not compromised.

     

     

    During the dry season groups of elephant, giraffe, waterbuck, zebra and more come to a small waterhole located in front of the lodge. Lucky guests can watch wildlife right from their rooms or the elevated viewing platform near the pool.

    Guests are able to enter, exit and re-enter from the Sangaiwe gate of Tarangire National Park with ease.

     

    Fine hospitality for safari travellers

    Accommodation at Tarangire Simba Lodge is in sixteen classic canvas safari tents situated permanently under thatch. The spacious tents are constructed on platforms complete with wooden floors, large en-suite dressing room, toilet and shower. There are twin and queen tents; triples are possible. There is also a family tent with two queen-sized beds. Additionally there is an outdoor shower and each tent has a private veranda with views to the bush and Lake Burunge. Furnishings are handcrafted from African hardwood complimented with tastefully selected fabrics; electricity and hot water are solar powered. Full amenities are provided.

    If you’re lucky you may see wildlife right from your room or verandah!

    Each room has a torch (flashlight) and umbrella for you to use during your stay with us and there is a power strip to charge your devices.
