Here’s a follow-up from our podcast interview with Christopher Bredt of Borden, Ladner, Gervais LLP, who climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro with other lawyers from his firm for charity.
Sean Weir, BLG’s National Managing Partner referred to the trek as, “one of the most difficult challenges he has facedâ€.
The team of volunteer lawyers successfully climbed to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro and raised more than $176,000 to support CODE’s Summit of Literacy. Combined with CIDA’s 3:1 matching grant, that means more than $700,000 will be donated to support children’s literacy programs in Africa.
