Sophia's Run for Clean Water in Africa Fundraising Page
Help Fund a Water Project
Children In Africa are dying very frequently. We are helping raise money so they can have clean water wells built.
Donate at least $10 to register for our 1 mile fun run! Put your name in the "message" area May 18th at 4:00 Byrd ParkDid you know nearly 1 billion people don't have safe water to drink?
Together, we can change that. Let's fund a new source of drinking water for those who suffer needlessly without it!
Our gifts will be used to construct or rehabilitate a water project, like a well or sand dam, in Africa. We'll see pictures, GPS coordinates, and updates as they come in from the actual water project we fund so we can celebrate the results along with the community we help.
