Ten years ago, Georgina Miranda couldn’t even run a mile. One day, she read an article about atrocities in Congo that inspired her to do something.

So, like any normal super human, she decided to transform herself in order to climb the highest peak on each continent to raise money for charity.

This month, Georgina and three other amazing women – Emma Walker, Jessica Hamel, and Elizabeth Williams – will tackle the highest peak in Mexico – Pico de Orizaba – a volcano reaching 18,491 feet.

Not only will it be the highest that Emma, Jessica and Elizabeth have ever climbed, they are pushing their limits for an awesome cause: Big City Mountaineers.

Big City Mountaineers helps transform the lives of underserved youth around the country through outdoor adventure and wilderness education.

Elizabeth Williams is the program director for Big City Mountaineers, and says, “I’m climbing Orizaba because I believe in how important it is to get kids on wilderness adventures who might not otherwise have the opportunity. It really changes their perspective.”

In honor of these ordinary women-turned-extraordinary, Olomomo Nut Company decided to sponsor the climb with a campaign on Care2, and by donating 25% of online sales through March 15th 2017 to support Big City Mountaineers.

Please join us. We dare you to take the Olomomo #NuttyGoodAdventure Challenge
