MY WHY! . A lot of people assuned that I just climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro for vacation or just because I wanted to. . BUT really it was because of her. . Clementine, my 22nd sponsored 'child'. We connected when we 1st met in 2015. I was/am a nurse. And she wanted to be one or a doctor. . Well, seasons and dreams change sometimes. . Now she wants to open up her own beauty shop. . AND I am overjoyed that she is still pursuing her dreams. . You see I was sick the day before these were taken and food was delivered to her family in my absence that day. . I was told her mom was so grateful because they didn't have any food and didn't know where their next food would be coming from. . BUT GOD. Schedules were already changed but the Lord in his provision got that food to them the day before I could meet them! . You see, I only sponsor Clem at this point but this sponsorship affects her entire family. . AND to see her mom's face when she recognized me from 4.5years ago, I will never forget that. . Now, I just have to get back sooner next time! . So, when I am asked about Kilimanjaro, I need to talk about her, Clem. I got to share with her that she was actually my inspiration for this trip because I have seen how sponsorship matters, yes. . BUT, even more, I have seen how having food can change everything. Not just food but natural unprocessed food. You see food has been a game changer for my health this past year! More on that later. . The Lord has raised about $3000 for my campaign for the school lunch program in Rwanda BUT my goal is $10,000 to $15,000, would please consider donating?! . AND Please reach out with any questions! .

ONE WEEK & ONE DAY until I leave for Mt. Kilimanjaro! . Some might be confused as to how these correlate. . Kilimanjaro and Rwanda. . Well, let me explain, a team of 11 ladies are treking up 19,341 feet to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro in East Africa. . Now, we are hiking and taking this huge fet, not just to climb a mountain, but a raise A LOT of money for the school lunch program for @africanewlife. . Here is a video that explains it! . https://youtu.be/zA9MZRowbkk . Link below for donations. . https://www.purecharity.com/kilimanjaro-2020-food-campaign-by-ashleigh-ohara-1 (at Kigali, Rwanda) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7cv91OjSjVxXtXykmv3LcR-C0iB79RMpsiZME0/?igshid=1w70gw8fwq9nm

TWENTY-FIVE more days until I leave for Kilimanjaro! . No bowflex the last couple of days because of Just Dance last night . AND jogging up two hills to get back home and hiking in the woods on the property that I live on! . Here are some pics from last night and today! . Ended the year and decade: Caring for my Hospice Patients, Myself (Chiro & MT), and spending time with friends (some of which ahve turned into family)! . Started this New Year and Decade hanging out with the same friends, watching movies, taking care of each other, jogging up two hills, and hiking the land! . I'm not sure what my future holds, but I do know who holds it! . #NewYear2020 #leteverychilddream #MtKilimanjaro #ANLM . https://www.purecharity.com/kilimanjaro-2020-food-campaign-by-ashleigh-ohara-1 (at Wallingford, Vermont) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6zU6_sDU7ehCM0dzAcf0QMXUq6QmtUkxvSEMc0/?igshid=6m21rlpv5pyc

TWENTY-SEVEN more days til I leave for #MtKilimanjaro !!!! . I hiked White Rocks in Wallingford on Sunday. . This will be my last hike of the year and decade. . It was great on the way up, I only feel once and hit my knee on the ice, so I stayed down a little while and iced my knee right there. Haha . And as you can see the view at the top is AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL! . BUT, on the way down I fell on my left hip pretty badly. I also fell other times that I don't even remember how many to be exact. . You see, I was rushing to beat my time from earlier this year. And I am guessing that my blood sugar was low from not eating enough before I hiked and during my hike. . I have felt bruised during this pruning process of traning and prepping for #MtKilimanjaro . But I refuse to be broken. Or even broken by it. . So, I need to start asking for help toward my actual trip. My plane tickets are all purchased. I have most of my gear now. I need some snacks and smaller items that I will share on an Amazon wishlist later. . BUT I really need your help with money toward the actual climb. My focus had been so scattered to all the things (Fundraising, Side Hustles, Gear, Tand Training) and I felt badly taking anything away from the food program. . BUT I can't hike for the food program if I'm not on that mountain. . So, please consider donating to my Tusker Trip. This is NOT a tax deductible donation. Giving to the food program is though. . Please send checks to: Tusker Trail C/O MEL KAIDA 924 Incline Way Suite H Incline Village, NV 89451 . THANK YOU to all my friends and family for your support thus far!!! . #leteverychilddream #MtKilimanjaro #TuskerTrails #ANLM #AfricaNewLife (at white rocks/ice beds trail, Vermont) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6vRlOPDfgRH-SuP5hsirmp2shSBaQdJove9Lk0/?igshid=198yqokmmil6y
