FAQ's

 

What is the Burt Process Virtual Walk for Water?
United by a common purpose, participants will walk to generate awareness of the global water crisis and raise funds to help the 2,200,000,000 people around the world who do not have access to safe water. This year, we encourage you to walk 3 miles in your neighborhood, around your office building, or in your local community in support of the people who make this daily walk to retrieve unsafe water for their family.

We have resources to help make your virtual walk engaging and fun! Our virtual walk instructions includes things like a music playlist, ideas for children's activities, and fun and interesting ways to share about your engagement with your friends and family.
