MissionTo grant the wishes of children and young people with life-threatening medicalconditions and to enrich the human experience with hope, strength and joy.

VisionAll Australians have the opportunity to share the power of a wish.

Make-A-Wish Australia history

In 1985, two Australians heard a speech that changed their lives. Since that moment, Make-A-Wish Australia has granted almost7,000 wishes to Australian children with life-threatening medical conditions.

The first Australian wish was granted to 16-year-old Shawn Cleland of Footscray in Melbourne in 1985. An avid fan of what wasthen the VFL, Shawn's wish was to meet the players of his beloved Footscray Football Club.

Shawn had never flown in a plane - so Make-A-Wish added an extra-special touch, flying Shawn to Sydney to see the Bulldogsplay the Swans.

Shawn's favourite player, Footscray legend, Simon Beasley, paid him a visit before the game, Tell the team that if they get athrashing they deserve a salary cut , Shawn joked.

Make-A-Wish Australia is a non-profit organisation and is an affiliate of Make-A-Wish International. Make-A-Wish organisationscan now be found in 36 countries across the globe.

A recent survey found that Make-A-Wish wishes have a significant positive impact on the health and wellbeing of wish children.97 percent of parents surveyed observed a noticeable improvement in their childs mental and emotional health following th egranting of their wish and said physical health improved discernibly in as many as 75 percent of cases.

Make-A-Wish receives no ongoing government funding and is critically reliant on the generous support of individuals,organisations and fundraising initiatives like the Kilimanjaro Charity Challenge.

For further information regarding Make-A-Wish Australia, please call 1800 032 260 or visit www.makeawish.org.au

The first wishAll his life, Christopher James Greicius dreamed of becoming a police officer. This wish was tobecome the inspiration for the largest wish-granting organisation in the world.

In 1980, at the age of 7, Chris was diagnosed with leukaemia. Upon learning that Chris's mostcherished wish was to be a policeman, members of the Arizona State Troopers began working toensure his dream came true. They arranged for Chris to take a flight in a police helicopter, ride in apatrol car and presented him with his very own uniform. He was even sworn in as an honorarymember of the force.

Sadly, Chris passed away shortly afterwards. But the seed had been planted.

After attending Chris's funeral, two of the State Troopers reflected on the experience of makinghis dream come true. They thought that if one boy's wish could be granted, maybe the same couldbe done for other children. At that moment, the idea for Make-A-Wish was born.

ExperienceAs ex-paratroopers, adventurers and successful businessmen, Darren and Shane know what itis like to push physical and mental boundaries. This experience, combined with a profoundlydeep understanding of the emotional demands of high alti tude mountaineering, ensures you will be surrounded by a team of professional and experienced leaders who truly understand your emotional journey. They know how to provide you with the vitalsupport when you need it most; not just on the mountain, but with your physical training and mental preparation in the months,weeks and days leading up to expedition. More people fail to conquer Mt Kilimanjaro mentally than physically.

Darren and Shane know firsthand the physical and mental demands of adventure expeditions.

They have had previous extensive military training in leadership and teamwork. Their previous military service and training

has prepared them to make important decisions quickly under extreme and adverse conditions. They have had ongoing extensive training with individuals and teams, so they know and are fully aware of the dynamics

required not just for a successful expedition, but for an enjoyable experience for the whole team. In March 2008, they successfully summited Mt Kilimanjaro in three days up the difficult and steep Umbwe Route which is one

of the fastest commercial ascents without pre-acclimatisation. They carried their own equipment and utilised only a smallsupport team.

In March 2010, over a 5 week global expedition, they summited Mt Aconcagua in Argentina which is South Americas highestmountain at 6,962 metres; they then travelled to Russia and summited Mt Elbrus, which is Europes highe st mountain at5,642 metres. Over a 5 week expedition, they climbed over 15,000 metres including acclimatisation, and flew 45,000kilometres around the world to achieve their expedition objectives.

They recently successfully summited Mt McKinley in Alaska which is the highest mountain on the North American continent ata height of 6,320 metres and regarded as perhaps the coldest mountain in the world. They are currently in preparation for

their summit attempts of Mt Everest and Antarcticas Mt Vinson to finish off their Seven Summits quest, and becoming twoof only a handful of Australian adventurers to complete this high altitude mountaineering crown.

They are also currently in preparation for an expedition that, if successful back to back with their Mt Everest attempt, wouldbe an Australian first with only three other people in the world having successfully completed both expeditions .

Making a difference is what Darren and Shane are truly passionate about in their adventure pursuits. They are ongoing activesupporters of Make-A-Wish, The Childrens Hospital at Westm ead and Legacy; not just through their expedition pursuits, butongoing through their direct community involvement and committee support.

Darren and Shane are not just mountaineers; they are adventurers and peak potential advocates. They thrive on adapting tochallenging and demanding environments and conditions. They firmly believe that continued personal growth is achievedthrough challenging your comfort zones and pushing new physical and mental boundaries.

Preparation and support With any expedition, preparation is vital for success. Peak Potential provides an ongoingtraining and equipment support program during the lead up to the expedition. Regularcontact and support will be ongoing through the Peak Potential Facebook page, as well as byemail, phone and personally as required. The team positions for our exclusive Mt Kilimanjaroexpeditions are usually filled by referral.

We strongly suggest you find a local training and expedition partner to undertake thischallenge with you. This will go a long way in providing vital ongoing motivation for training and support, not just leading up tothe expedition, but also during the climb. Healthwise Active Travel will also provide ongoing travel advice and support, gettingyou to the expedition and back home.

Fitness requirements Sticking to a fitness program in the months prior to climbing Mt Kilimanjaro is a vital part of preparation. It is true that attemptingto become as fit as possible may not ultimately help with the prevention of acute mountain sickness (AMS), but an increasedlevel of fitness will ensure the body's ability to cope with the change in atmospheric pressure is amplified, making bothacclimatisation and the walking itself far less strenuous. More important than anything else when it comes to climbing, is one'scardiovascular (CV) fitness. Cardiovascular fitness refers to the fitness level of the most important muscle in the body - the heart.Exercising for between 20 and 40 minutes approximately 4 times a week will significantly increase CV fitness, leading to moreefficient oxygen consumption by the tissues of the body. This will result in the more effective use of energy supplies, substantiallyimproving your chances of a successful summit attempt.

Activities such as jogging, cycling, swimming and boxing all increase the heart rate and improve your CV fitness. The best option isto attempt to include activities that you enjoy, which will improve the chances of actually continuing with a fitness program.

Performing the same exercise every time is not recommended, as sooner or later the body becomes accustomed to the trainingand is thus no longer challenged by it. Effective methods of training include cross training and interval training. Cross traininginvolves performing at least two different forms of exercise in one session; whilst interval training includes varying your effortlevel substantially every couple of minutes during a single session. Both of these techniques keep the heart challenged on anongoing basis, ensuring that your CV fitness is constantly on the increase.

The closer it gets to the expedition, the longer cardio sessions should last. Ideally, a monthbefore the climb is due to commence, you should be training for around 45 minutes at leastthree times a week. Closer to the commencement of the expedition, it is advisable to includeactivities such as steep hill climbing and long hikes to build up your endurance. Any trainingthat is similar to Mt Kilimanjaro experience will be beneficial, even a short hike every secondweekend. Purchasing a Backpack long in advance and taking it on 'practice runs' will help to

prepare your body for the conditions it will experience on the mountain. If you cannot get outinto the mountains regularly, find a gym that has a summit climber in their equipment line-up.These machines work the climbing muscles that will be used during the expedition. Also, aspreviously mentioned, try and do the climb with an expedition partner. An expedition partner is not only a great source of motivation leading up to the expedition, but you will be a great support for each other on the mountain - making the wholeexperience more enjoyable.

Darren and Shane will be available leading up to the expedition to provide training advice and ensure you are physically preparedfor the expedition. They will also provide valuable advice on your mental preparation and what to expect on the mountain.Mental preparation is vital if you are to succeed, not just on the mountain, but leading up to the climb.

Please note that your position on the expedition is not guaranteed. A booking form needs to be completed and an assessment

completed of both your experience and fitness level to undertake the Mt Kilimanjaro Charity Challenge safely.

Machame Route Map

For the September, 2013 expedition, we have decided to take the Machame Route to the summit. This route is sometimes calledthe Whisky Route . This is a popular route up steep paths through magnificent forests to gain a ridge leading through themoorland zones to the Shira Plateau. The track then traverses beneath the glaciated precipices of the Southern Icefields to joinup with the Barafu Route to the summit. The Mweka Route is used for the descent from the summit.

Accommodation on the mountain is in tents which the porters will pitch for you. You will need a sleeping bag, warm clothes andwalking poles. This is a more challenging route up Mt Kilimanjaro, but well within the limits of a fit individual used to trekking andexercise.

This is also probably the most beautiful route up Mt Kilimanjaro. All your equipment and supplies are portered and a cookprepares all your meals. Where accommodation on the Marangu Route is in huts, the Machame Route offers strictly tents only.This makes Machame better suited to the more adventurous climber and, it rewards them with a scenic splendour such as notseen on the Marangu Route. From late afternoon sunsets at Shira, to the misty revelations of Kibo at the great Barranco Wall, theMachame Route offers you a stunning scenic slide show over six days. There is an added benefit to this, as you are afforded themost valuable commodity on the mountain - acclimatisation . The Machame Route takes you high to Lava Tower (4,630m) on theday three and brings you down by nearly 700m for an overnight at Barranco Camp (3,950m). This is the secret to successful

acclimatisation.

Moshi (915m) to Machame Gate (1,490m)Machame Gate (1,490m) to Machame Camp (2,980m)

Hiking Time: 5-7 hoursDistance: 18 kmHabitat: Montane ForestMeals included: breakfast, lunch, dinner

Your day starts early with a briefing, followed by breakfast and a 50-minute drive from Moshi to the Machame Village (1,490m)where your guides and porters prepare and pack your equipment and supplies. You will receive a lunch pack, and you can alsobuy drinks in the village. If the road is very muddy, it may be impossible to drive from the village to the Machame Gate, and inthis case, it will take us an extra hour to complete the muddy three km walk to the gate. After registering at the park office, youstart your ascent and enter the rain forest immediately. Heavy rains on this side of the mountain often transform the trail into asoggy, slippery experience, so good footgear, trekking poles and gaiters are useful. You will enjoy a welcome lunch stop halfwayup and we will reach the Machame camping area in the late afternoon. Your porters will arrive at camp before you and will erect

your tent before you arrive. In the evening, the porters boil drinking and washing water while the cook prepares your dinner.Night-time temperatures can drop to freezing at the Machame Camp.

You rise early at Machame Camp, and after breakfast, climb for an hour to the top of the forest, then for two hours throughgentle moorland. After a short lunch and rest, you continue up a rocky ridge onto the Shira Plateau where you will be able to seeMt Kilimanjaros great Western Breach with its stunning glaciers. Sometimes, the walls of the Western Breach are draped withextensive ice curtains. You are now west of Kibo on the opposite side of the mountain from the Marangu Route. After a shorthike west, you reach the Shira campsite. The porters will boil drinking and washing water before serving dinner. The night at thisexposed camp will be colder, with temperatures dropping below freezing.

Day 5 - Monday 16 th SeptemberShira Camp (3,840m) to Lava Tower (4,630m)Lava Tower (4,630m) to Barranco Camp (3,950m) Hiking Time: 7 hoursDistance: 15 kmHabitat: Semi-DesertMeals included: breakfast, lunch, dinner

After breakfast, you will hike east up a steepening path above the highest vegetation toward Mt Kilimanjaros looming mass if.

After several hours, you walk through a rocky landscape to reach the prominent landmark called Lava Tower at 4,630m. Thisrugged remnant of Mt Kilimanjaros earlier volcanic activity is several hun dred feet high, and the trail passes right below it. Forextra credit, the sure-footed can scramble to the top of the tower. After a lunch stop near Lava Tower, youll descend for twohours below the lower cliffs of the Western Breach and Breach Wall to Barranco Camp at 3,950m. There are numerous photoopportunities on this hike, especially if the walls are garlanded with ice. Barranco Camp is in a valley below the Breach and GreatBarranco Walls, which should provide you with a memorable sunset while you wait for your dinner. On this day, be careful tonotice any signs of altitude sickness.

Day 6 - Tuesday 17 th SeptemberBarranco Camp (3,950m) to Karanga Valley (4,000m)Karanga Valley (4,000m) to Barafu Camp (4,550m)Hiking Time: 8 hoursHabitat: Alpine DesertMeals included: breakfast, lunch, dinner

After spending the night camped under the imposing Great Barranco Wall, you climb this awesome natural feature, which turnsout to be easier than it looks. Topping out just below the Heim Glacier, you can now appreciate just how beautiful Mt Kilimanjaroreally is. Continue along Karanga Valley and you have now completed the South Circuit, which offers views of the summit frommany different angles. For now, all eyes are still on the summit, so turn left and hike up the ridge for another hour to the BarafuHut. There is no water at Barafu Camp, even though Barafu is the Swahili word for ice. The famous snows of Mt Kilimanjaro arefar above Barafu Camp near the summit of the mountain. Your tent will be pitched on a narrow stony wind-swept ridge, so makesure that you familiarise yourself with the terrain before dark to avoid any accidents. Prepare your equipment and warm clothingfor your summit climb. This should include replacing your headlamp and camera batteries; and to prevent freezing, considercarrying your water in a thermal flask. Go to bed by 7 PM, and try to get a few hours of precious sleep.

You will rise around 11:30 PM, and after some steaming tea and biscuits, you shuffle off into the night. Your six hour climb,northwest up through heavy scree between the Rebmann and Ratzel Glaciers to Stella Point on the crater rim, is the mostchallenging part of the route for most climbers. At Stella Point (5,685m) you stop for a short rest and a chance to see a supremelyspectacular sunrise. At Stella Point you join the top part of the Marangu Route; but do not stop here too long, as it will beextremely difficult to start again due to the cold and fatigue. Depending on the season and recent storms, you may encountersnow on your remaining hike along the rim to Uhuru Peak. On the summit, you can enjoy your accomplishment and know that

you are creating a day that you will remember for the rest of your life. After your three hour descent from the summit back toBarafu Camp, you will have a well-earned but short rest and collect your gear. You then hike down a rock and scree path into themoorland and eventually through the forest to Mweka Camp (3,100m).

13/19




How much money do I have to fundraise?The fundraising target consists of two components; the travel costs and the charity portion. The split is approximately 50/50. Youare required to fundraise a minimum amount of $7,000. You can of course fundraise above and beyond this target and alladditional funds raised will go directly to Make-A-Wish and help us grant the wishes of children with life threatening medicalconditions.

How do I fundraise the fundraising target? There are four different ways you can raise the fundraising target:

1. You may choose to personally fund the entire amount and claim the minimum charity portion of $7,000 as a tax deductibledonation.

2. You can opt to pay for your own travel costs as your annual holiday and fundraise the charity portion.3. You may choose to fundraise as much as you can and pay the remaining balance yourself.4. You can fundraise the entire amount; ensuring funds raised towards the travel costs are not raised in the name of Make -A-

Wish and you are transparent with your donors that their donation will be going towards your travel expenses and are nottax deductible.

Will I receive any fundraising support? Once you have registered for the challenge, we will assist you in developing your very own fundraising plan. Peak Potential andMake-A-Wish will be available to support you in your fundraising and ensure you are all on track, offer advice and support whererequired.

How will people know that I am eligible to fundraise for Make-A-Wish? Once you have registered for the challenge, you will receive a Community Fundraising Kit from Make-A-Wish which will include aform outlining Your responsibilities as a fundraiser. You will be required to sign and return this form to Make -A-Wish. Once thisform is received Make-A-Wish will issue you with an authority to fundraise in the form of a letter. This letter can be shown asproof of eligibility.

What is the deadline for raising the money? The final date for fundraising will be the 1 st July 2013.

Once you have registered your place on the challenge, we will supply you with a Fundraising Kit which will include a CountdownCalendar . This comprises a schedule listing all the important milestones in the lead up to your trip including payment dates and

amounts, and when to arrange your various travel documents.How do I fundraise for the travel component of the target?Many choose to fund their own travel costs, using money normally spent on their annual holiday. Alternatively, you could hold anevent or activity for family and friends who are willing to support your personal travel costs.

If you choose to fundraise the travel component you must be transparent with your supporters and ensure they are aware thattheir donation is contributing wholly or partly towards your travel costs. Please note it is important that your supportersunderstand that their donation will not be given to Make-A-Wish and is therefore not a tax deductible donation but acontribution to your travel expenses.

For this reason we are unable to accept funds for the travel component of the trip through your Everyday Hero page as these

donations are automatically issued a tax deductible receipt.


14/19




What happens if I dont fundraise the target in time, can I still go on thechallenge? If you fall short of the fundraising target, you can make up the balance yourself and still participate in the challenge. Make-A-Wish and Peak Potential will support you throughout the entire fundraising process. We assist you in setting up an initialfundraising plan (as above) and break the target down into manageable amounts. The experienced Make-A-Wish fundraisingteam as well as Peak Potential will continually support and monitor your fundraising progress with regular correspondence toassist you in meeting your target.

Can I pay the whole amount myself and receive a tax deductible receipt for thecharity portion of the target?

Definitely, this is a great option if you do not have the time to fundraise but would still like to participate in the challenge whilstsupporting Make-A-Wish. If you choose this option only the charity component is tax deductible.

Who is eligible to receive a tax deductible receipt for their donation? Any funds raised for the travel costs of the trip are not tax deductible. All other donations (charitycomponent) are eligible, so long as they are over $2.00 and the donor has not received anything in return for their contribution.For example, sponsorship and donations through your online fundraising page are tax deductible, trivia nights and sausage sizzlesare not.

If any donors require a receipt, you must collect their donation amount and contact information (including the donor's full nameand postal address) on the Donor Receipt Form issued to you following approval of the Activity. This must be supplied to Make-

A-Wish at the end of your fundraiser. We will then organise and send receipts direct to each donor.

Its important to note that the donor must not receive a material benefit or an advantage by way of return for their donation . Formore information on this, go the Australian Tax Office website: www.ato.gov.au

If you are unclear as to what is eligible and what is not please do not hesitate to contact Make-A-Wish.

How do I collect donations from my supporters via cash/cheque/credit cards?
