our project

On 5 August 2009, Jelmer Ikink and Roman Lentz  stood on top of Mt. Kilimanjaro, the highest point in Africa, and felt the need to do more - climb more mountains, but more importantly, give support to the people who are in need of so much more. "no mountain too high" (“the Organization”) is a project to support micro-entrepreneurs in developing countries. 

 

Mission: To promote, support, and cooperate with micro-entrepreneurs by raising awareness and funds to bring attention to the formidable challenges micro-entrepreneurs face, through the challenge of climbing the highest mountain on each continent.

 

Vision: no mountain too high envisions a fair chance for every global citizen, regardless of background, ethnicity, or religion, to make a positive difference in people’s lives by creating business opportunities that benefit themselves and others.

 

Legal status: no mountain too high is a public charity, is incorporated under the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, United States, and is tax exempt under section 501(c)3 of the Internal Revenue Code. Contributions to no mountain too high are tax deductible under Section 170 of the Code. Additionally, we are qualified to receive tax deductible brquests, devises, transfers or gifts under section 2055, 2106 or 2522 of the Code. All contributions will benefit our cause.
