Project Kilimanjaro is a non-profit organization that promotes the health and wellness of women and children internationally.

With a diverse set of volunteers coming from North America, European Union, Australia, and Asia we work to ensure sustainable community development, global cooperation, and a greater sense of cultural understanding to bridge the divide between international communities.
