If we looked at every child that needed help as having bricks on their feet for strength we would do all we could to help create a stronger foundation. I hope you keep writing, you are a powerful writer with an important perspective and message to share - thanks again. Thank you Salavat for an amazing story and reminder of what is important.

And you are right to remember the smiles more than anything else. In the ten years of the Alpine Fund taking kids to the mountains I wonder how many thousands and thousands of smiles there have been. I know the smiles I have seen I too will never forget, and the tears too when the weekend is over. I am confident that something from a mountain trip stays with the children forever. So thanks again for helping the Alpine Fund out, to take the time to write about your weekend - and of course we all want to see the photos!
