In June 2022, K2 Adventure Travel and members of the Valleywise Health Foundation led a team of burn survivors, medical professionals and donors to climb Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, Africa to raise awareness of all that burn survivors can accomplish and the life-changing work done at the Diane & Bruce Halle Arizona Burn Center at Valleywise Health. More than fundraising for a new Burn Survivorship Center and a climb, this is about showing our survivors AND community that anything is possible when we Rise Together.
8 survivors. 8 stories. 1 goal… to summit Mt. Kilimanjaro and show the world that nothing is impossible when you rise together.
