Join Jeff Harmon on a Journey Beyond Limits: Conquering Kilimanjaro

In September 2025, Jeff Harmon embarks on an extraordinary expedition to summit Mount Kilimanjaro. But Jeff’s journey is unlike any other. Confined to a wheelchair since 2017 due to Adrenomyeloneuropathy (AMN), a relentless degenerative disease, Jeff’s ascent symbolizes more than just the physical conquering of a mountain; it is a testament to human spirit, a declaration that facing our deepest fears, embracing the risk of failure, and stepping into the unknown is where true transformation begins.

Jeff’s odyssey is the heartbeat of My Impossible, Inc., an organization born from his indomitable will to live a life without boundaries.

My Impossible's vision is a world where everyone, regardless of their challenges—be it physical, mental, emotional, or socioeconomic—can overcome their own personal "impossibles." Our mission is to create a movement around the world of people who take on what they once thought impossible, transforming not only their lives but the community that supports them.

Jeff's community includes his wife, Sandy, daughters, Maddie and Gloria and his many friends who help him take on "impossible" challenges. That community also includes the 30 team members who have said "yes" to helping him summit Kilimanjaro.

The Kilimanjaro Challenge: Our First Milestone

Jeff's ascent of Kilimanjaro is not just a personal challenge; it's the inaugural venture of My Impossible, aiming to light the path for countless others. Your support isn't just a donation; it’s a share in a movement that champions resilience, community, and a life filled with adventure and purpose.

Here's How Your Contribution Makes a Difference:

My Impossible Grants ($50,000): Funding grants to assist individuals in achieving their impossible dreams and for organizations who share our mission.
Documentary and Outreach ($46,000): A key element for creating the movement is sharing our story with the world through a documentary and a comprehensive social media campaign to inspire others to take on their impossible.
Ascent Support ($45,000): It requires 25 - 30 other climbers to get our adaptive athlete to the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro. Transportation, Lodging, food and most importantly the coordinate, expertise and experience of the local company are required for each member of the team.
Travel Expenses ($45,000): Covering the cost of international travel for team members flying in from the US and Europe.
Supporting Local Porters ($22,000): Our Tanzanian porters depend on the climber’s tips in order to live. We want to multiply the standard tip amount to create economic opportunities through their education, healthcare or wherever these resources would make an impact in their communities.
Climbing Gear ($20,000): Procuring the essential gear and equipment to ensure a safe and successful climb.
Training Expenses ($10,000): Preparing the team for the climb with essential training across the US, including obstacle courses and mountain treks.
Adaptive Mountain Wheelchair ($5,000): A custom-built, all-terrain wheelchair designed to navigate the challenging terrain of Kilimanjaro, tailored for Jeff's physical needs.
Operational Costs: Ensuring the smooth execution of our mission.

Donors have the flexibility to designate their contributions for specific aspects of the project or allow the My Impossible team to allocate funds where they are most needed.

Partnership Opportunities:

We invite companies and organizations that share our values to partner with us in sponsoring various aspects of this monumental endeavor, including the Kilimanjaro climb, documentary production, gear procurement, Jeff’s adaptive wheelchair, and each training event.
