Climbing Kilimanjaro is more than just a physical challenge. It mirrors the mountains we all face in life and business. Each step takes perseverance, teamwork, and a belief that you can reach the summit.
We all have our own mountains to climb. Whether it’s in our personal or professional lives, we meet challenges that push our limits and test our resilience.
Our motivation to overcome them is often multifaceted, such as the desire to break through barriers, achieve personal growth, and to experience a sense of accomplishment and renewed purpose.
At Accelerate Change, we believe that climbing Mount Kilimanjaro can serve all of these desires and is a powerful metaphor for the journey of leadership and entrepreneurship.
Climbing Kilimanjaro with us will be a deeply transformative experience. While our physical pace will be slow, the psychological shifts are designed to be experienced in an accelerated manner.
Throughout the climb, you’ll engage in curated conversations and reflective moments that will challenge you, unlocking new levels of personal growth and breakthroughs. Our team will guide discussions around entrepreneurship, leadership, and social change—ensuring that you not only conquer the mountain but also conquer versions of yourselves.
Combining intense physical challenge with increased demand on mental fortitude, decision-making and communication will promote the development of new neural pathways in the brain. These new pathways, forged by the accomplishment of summiting a mountain of this scale, will lead to deeper, long-lasting changes in how you tackle complex challenges as a leader moving forward.

Superb Acclimatization
Our chosen itinerary is crafted in a way that ensures the smoothest acclimatization transition.
LEMOSHO ROUTE
There are several trails to the peak of Kilimanjaro. We’ve chosen the 7-day Lemosho route for its amazing views, great acclimatization profile and high summit success rate; our outfitter has a rate of 94.9%.
Renowned for its stunning scenery, this 42 mile route passes through diverse habitats—rainforests, moorlands, and alpine deserts—all the way to the snow-covered Uhuru Peak at 19,341 feet.
Our journey will be captured in a docu-film, showcasing the highs, lows and breakthroughs of our collective experience. Together we will tell a story of overcoming challenges and share the wisdom, connections and achievements gained along the way.
This film will offer valuable insights into the entrepreneurial mindset, leadership and team work required to achieve success, in turn inspiring the next generation of leaders.
This is a comprehensive package that includes everything you may need for the hike to the summit and participation in the documentary, as well as vlog/social media footage for your personal use.
As a leader, we appreciate that you may be able and willing to help fundraise for the greater impact and also to help fund part of your trip.
Upon registering with your deposit, we will create a personal fundraising link for you to share as part of your social media and email shout-out to raise funds. 49% of all funds you raise may be applied to reduce the cost of your total investment if you wish, or can be donated to Accelerate Change to further our causes.
Either way, we will issue a tax-deductible donation receipt for $2900 (equivalent to your non-refundable deposit).
Throughout the process, we will raise awareness and funds for our non-profit organization, Accelerate Change, to amplify our collective impact.
As we prepare to summit Kilimanjaro, we recognize the importance of leaving a lasting impact beyond the personal benefits we will experience from our climb.
Accelerate Change is partnering with nonprofits, schools and community leaders in Tanzania to teach skills in entrepreneurship and leadership, which will support residents to grow their own ideas and drive social impact within their own communities.
This isn’t about imposing our solutions, but creating opportunities for them to lead, innovate, and inspire within their own context.
Our partnership with Tanzanian schools will help nurture a generation of problem solvers, empowering them with the tools they need to thrive, long after our journey ends. Your all-inclusive climbing package with us helps to support these initiatives.
