Why should I fundraise?

Your friends, family, co-workers, and classmates care about what you care about, and they want a way to do something that's bigger than themselves. So, why not fundraise? We provide you with all the tools you need to be successful in telling our story and fundraising. 

Where should I park?

How long does the Walk for Water take?
The walk is approximately 1.75 miles, which takes about 30-40 minutes to complete. 

What is the Walk for Water like?
After opening ceremonies, every participant will take a two-gallon bucket (provided at the event) and begin to walk a three-mile route. Halfway through the route, walkers fill their bucket with dirty water and carry it back to the park. The walk is symbolic of the trek that women and children make every single day to collect unsafe water. 

Do I have to fill my bucket to the top?
No, you can fill the bucket to your desired level. If you do not feel you can complete the Walk with a bucket, you are welcome to walk without one.
