As reported by CU Journal earlier this year, group of 32 people, including representatives of United Nations agencies, the United Nations FCU, and World Council of Credit Unions, scaled Mount Kilimanjaro to raise awareness and funds for UN-HABITAT, which supports urban safety projects for at-risk youth in East Africa.

Kitsch and nine other credit unionists will be following in their footsteps Sept. 16.
