Dr. Sponsel will be climbing all 19,341 feet of Kilimanjaro to raise funds for his patients in Malawi and Guatemala. The Sight for Life Foundation has funded two clinics in Africa and Central America that carry out sight saving surgeries for people without the means to pay for them. The Sight for Life Foundation is taking sponsorships for Dr. Sponsel's momentous climb. Become a Sherpa, Mountaineer, Alpinist, Climber, Trekker, or Hiker (Sherpa, Mountaineer, and Alpinist) will have their name forever inscribed on a plaque in the clinic foyer of both Malawi and Guatemala.
The Roger William Lytle Clinic and Eyes of Africa clinic will be the recipients of all funds raised by this climb. All donations are tax deductible as the Sight for Life Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
Thanks in advance for support of the patients in dire need of Vision Saving Surgeries!
