Hike / Bushwalk for Tumi Tiger




Laetitia Roux has been a faithful friend of the ministry.

She's always had a soft spot for our Tumi Tiger and everything Tumi stands for.

Now she and Léan, her son, want to do the Tankwa Camino trail in the Tankwa Karoo (South Africa's Outback).

Tumi is going with! As they want to raise awareness about Tumi's ministry as far as they will make it.
