I will be embarking on an ambitious month-long trek through Pakistan's Karakoram mountains this summer while documenting the epic natural beauty of this region and it's people.

My mission is to raise $50,000 for the Central Asia Institute, founded by Greg Mortenson, author of Three Cups of Tea. These funds will be used to support community-based education programs in the remote mountainous regions of Pakistan and Afghanistan. $50,000 is enough to build a school and run it for a period of up to 3 years.

Donating is simple, fast and totally secure. Please visit the following link if you would like to contribute:

I truly appreciate your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!

All the best,
Rob
