Mike died high on the mountain whilst descending from the summit of Mount Everest. This around May 13th 1999. Much loved and respected for his fully occupied way of working and living life Mike would have approved of what now is being delivered to children in his name in Nepal and Tanzania.

Around five thousand students are now part of the MMF better schooling program. These are children born with nil privilege living in remote areas and who without a helping hand are unlikely to receive an adequate education. 

Mike Matthews Foundation (MMF) builds schools or builds better in order to improve existing ones. In some cases residential dormitories have been added which has resulted in real gains following more personal time and so better learning. 

The Matthews Family pay the running costs of MMF. Every penny of incoming funding is spent directly helping children. 

Be kind to help and Thank You if you do.
