Rockers Reach Mt. Kilimanjaro's Highest Peak
On September 28th, 25 cancer survivors, legendary musicians (including Cy Curnin of The Fixx, Mike Peters of the Alarm, Robin Wilson of the Gin Blossoms, Glenn Tilbrook of Squeeze, Slim Jim Phantom of The Stray Cats, and Nick Harper), and supporters of the Love Hope Strength Foundation's Kilimanjaro Rocks! Team, assembled at the gates to Mt Kilimanjaro. On October 5th, ALL of the 25 climbed to the summit of Uhuru (which means freedom in Swahili) – the peak of Mt Kilimanjaro - to raise money and awareness for cancer care in East Africa. We walked through the gates, some as friends, some as strangers, and on October 5th, we summited as kaka’s and dada’s (brothers and sisters in Swahili). It’s a journey that none of us will ever forget. Nor will we forget the bounds that we forged.
