The Kilimanjaro Porters Assistance Project (KPAP) - a Tanzanian NGO registered in January 2003 - is a close partner of the Marangu Hotel.
Their focus is improving the working conditions of the porters on Kilimanjaro. They do this by:
- Lending donated clothing at no charge for the porter's use while working on Kili
- Providing classes for the benefit of the porters such as English, First Aid, HIV/AIDS Awareness, and Money Management
- Educating the public regarding proper porter treatment
Please visit the Amani Children's Home and help support the orphans and street-children of the Kilimanjaro Region.
