Bluegiga and its Australian distributor Glyn, contribute to “Climb for Cancer” charity

31.08.2012

Bluegiga’s distributor in Australia and New Zealand, Glyn, has a top man at the helm of the company. Mike Benson, Managing Director for Glyn, was celebrating his 40^th birthday and thought that something would need to be done to mark this occasion. He decided to fly to Africa and climb the Mt. Kilimanjaro and do it for a good cause. He decided to climb the mountain to raise funds for foundation that is providing equipment to help children with cancer treatments, such as Mike’s friend's 6-year-old from Kerikeri.

Mike being a dad of four, commented “Reaching the top and waving
the flag symbolizes the hundreds of steps children with cancer and their
families take, for hope, for life,” Mike says.

Bluegiga also participated in the charity “Climb for Cancer” by making a small donation for cause.
