Last year, they lacked funding.

They will set off for Everest in April 2009! I know a friend who knows one of the mountaineers personally, so I’m really happy for them!

I don’t aspire to climb Everest (only Kilimanjaro!), but I know it’s like a dream come true for these ladies to know that at least the funding is settled.

Check out the official website for the Singapore Women’s Everest Team, and their blogs too!
