SERVE, a development and volunteering organisation based in Cork is committed to tackling poverty in marginalised and oppressed communities in Asia and Africa. They will be resuming their annual 4 Peaks Challenge on the 24th – 26th June 2022 and are looking for individuals or teams of five to participate.
In this event various teams conquer the highest mountain in each province over the course of one weekend to raise awareness and vital funds for SERVE's overseas development programmes. The four mountains are Carrauntoohil, Co. Kerry (1,038m), Mweelrea, Co. Mayo (814m), Slieve Donard, Co. Down (925m) and Lugnaquilla, Co. Wicklow (850m).
Every step taken take raises awareness of challenges like the lack of skills training and access to employment opportunities for vulnerable women and young people. All donations will directly support programmes that support vulnerable women and young people to access skills training and educational opportunities. Without these funded programmes, the beneficiaries of these programmes would have very little chance to live a dignified life.
When you sign up for this challenge, you are directly assisting women and young people on their uphill climb towards a prosperous life
