Sauraj Jhingan and Samir Patham on their Mount Everest expedition
On May 29, 1953, Edmund Hillary and Sherpa Tenzing Norgay became the first to reach the summit of Mount Everest, the highest mountain above sea level on planet Earth. Since then, many have attempted to climb it, though not everyone has succeeded in reaching the summit. Tomorrow, on May 29, what will mark the 67th anniversary of Hillary and Norgay's feat, summiteers Sauraj Jhingan and Samir Patham will recount their own experiences in a webinar of how they finally conquered Everest on their third attempt in 2018.
The online session titled Resilience is being organised as part of the e-concert series We Care and proceeds from it will go towards actor Rajshri Deshpande's Nabhangan Foundation for the welfare of farmers and daily wage workers in remote areas of Marathwada, as well as sex workers, migrant workers and health professionals. To attend the session, participants have to donate Rs300 or more to the fundraiser while students can pay Rs150.
