Breakaway 2017 (Walk This Way!)$3349.41
 
This year, Breakaway WALK THIS WAY! is partnering with The Water Project, a non-profit organization that is bringing relief to communities around the world who suffer needlessly from a lack of access to clean water.

 

  • Nearly 1 billion people don’t have safe water to drink.
  • A child dies every 15 seconds from a lack of clean water.
  • 1 in 4 children who die before age 5 worldwide, die of a water related disease.
  • Children often walk miles every day to collect dirty water to drink.
  • Most people without access to clean water live right above it.
  • In many cases the only thing preventing access to clean water is money.
  • The water projects can provide water for 1 person for over 10 years for only $10! (some for less than $1)
  • We CAN make a huge impact in someone’s life!
  •  

    We are asking all the kids at Breakaway WALK THIS WAY! to find a spare sock and fill it with spare change they find at home, all throughout the week! All the proceeds of these donations will go directly toward the building of a well in an African country to provide clean, fresh water.

    We hope you'll consider joining us to fund a water project. With your gifts and your help rallying support, we can provide clean, safe and reliable water to a community in Africa.

    Today, too many children suffer needlessly - walking miles for dirty water that makes them sick. You and I can change that. Please make a donation and then help us spread the word.

    How this works

    Dirty water impacts health, education, women, and income. Providing a reliable and safe water source allows communities to thrive.

    The Water Project provides access to safe and reliable water across sub-Saharan Africa. Together, our support can end the water crisis and restore hope, one community at a time.

    The coolest part? We'll all get to see our impact! Every gift is directly linked to a specific water project and community. We'll receive updates including photos and stories, maps and more!

    Lives change when communities gain access to clean water. Let's experience it together. Make a donation to my fundraising campaign today!
