Kinabalu Challenge

I'm posting this on behalf of my wife who works in Penang Adventist Hospital. Below is her email.

Dear friends,

I wrote this email two nights ago when I couldn't sleep. I was too excited about a special mission. On May 16-18, I'm planning to climb Mount Kinabalu. This is a hospital project and I'm the organizer. AS an organizer, theoretically I don't have to pay. But every other participants are raising money to climb, so I thought I should not have the special privilege. I'm planning to raise RM10,000 for a child to undergo heart surgery. A surgery costs at least RM25K but if I can contribute half, it's a lot to me.

This is my special mission: To raise RM10K within 30 days or less.

I can't brag about my physical aspect as I have less exercise last few months. But I have a strong determination and faith to reach the peak. So, if you can help me to raise at least 10K, I promise I shall print your face in a banner and I'll put this on the peak of Mount Kinabalu.

What I need is just for each of you to donate RM100. Just RM100. I'm planning to get someone else to match my gift. If I raise RM5K, I'll get someone else to donate RM5K. But first I need at least seed money of RM5K.

Just RM100. This is NOT for me. It's for a child in need of heart surgery. You will get a tax-exempt receipt and reward in heaven :)

If you're moved to respond, please do so personally. You may also choose to remain anonymous. When I reach the top of the mountain on May 17, I will make a special prayer for God to bless your kind heart.

Thank you so much. I know you have faith in me :)
