Remote Medical International lead instructor, Melissa Arnot, is part of a team that has embarked on an expedition to summit Mount Everest this Spring, in support of the (RED) campaign. EVEREST TEAM INSPI(RED), as they are called, are hoping to inspire individuals to support (RED), as they attempt to reach the summit of the highest peak in the world, at 29,028 feet.
The (RED) campaign was created in order raise awareness and money for The Global Fund by teaming up with the world’s most iconic brands to produce (PRODUCT)RED branded products. A percentage of each (PRODUCT)RED product sold is given to The Global Fund. The money helps women and children affected by HIV/AIDS in Africa.
You can follow EVEREST TEAM INSPI(RED) on their journey by visiting their blog at http://joinred.spaces.live.com/, which features regular dispatches from the climb, pictures, as well as ways for you to support (RED).
All of the staff at Remote Medical International wish Melissa and the rest of EVEREST TEAM INSPI(RED) the best of luck in reaching their goal.
