  14. KILI FOR BIBLES

  15. KILI FOR BIBLES • Personal dream for more than 10 years • Decided to do it in 2009 • Newspaper 28 February 2009 • Board decision – some where skeptical • Short time to organize

  16. KILI FOR BIBLES • Very personal flavour • Write letters only to people we know • Some personal meetings/sponsors • Radio stations pick it up • One act as ‘main media sponsor’ – promoted it heavily

  17. KILI FOR BIBLES • Daily e-mails and a photo from Kili • 2 live interviews with main radio station • 1 live interview per day with another radio station • E-mails to newspapers • Most successful single FR campaign the in 13 years

  18. KILI FOR BIBLES

  19. KILI FOR BIBLES Very emotional moment

  20. The challenge… • Why don’t we do the same for the GSP? • What will/can happen, not only in terms of Fundraising, when we take 10-20 PLWHA from different countries to the top of Kilimanjaro? • What will happen if we pray from that mountain, asking God to bless the GSP in Africa?

  21. I also believe… • The Africa AIDS services/office should be expanded with: • A communications officer (someone who can tell the ‘world’ how effective this project is); • A Africa GSP fundraiser, who can hook the big fishes!

  22. Any questions? Thank you! 
