Celebrating AEP's 20-Year Anniversary @ 20,000 Feet

Our Co-founder and Executive Director, Julie-Anne Savarit-Cosenza, will be taking on this incredible challenge and seeks to raise $1 for each foot she will climb for a total of $20,000. These funds will directly support digital learning and leadership development for the children and youth at AEP's Learning & Leadership Center in Kafue, Zambia. Your generous contributions will provide essential digital resources, equipping our students with the tools they need to thrive in an increasingly digital world.

This fundraiser also marks the launch of our new partnership with Summits with a Purpose, a nonprofit founded and led by record-breaking mountaineer and native Zambian, Saray N’Kusi Khumalo. Saray is the first black African woman to summit Mount Everest and, in 2025, she will become the first Black woman to complete the Explorer's Grand Slam. The organization is dedicated to encouraging African youth to engage in exploration, education, outdoor activities, and entrepreneurship.

Together, we can climb higher and achieve more. Join us in making a lasting impact by donating to the 20-20-20 Kilimanjaro fundraiser today and help us continue to transform lives through education.
