2nd annual WALK 4 WATER

2nd annual 3-mile WALK 4 WATER is an educational experience fundraising event.  Raise awareness.  Raise funds.  Come experience one aspect of water poverty first hand by carrying water like almost 1 Billion people on earth that don't have access to clean water.  Participants carry water for the second half of the walk (2 2-liter bottles filled with water - about 8 lbs.) to simulate what women and children experience every day.  As Confucius  says:  "I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand."  Walkers fundraise and get pledge donations.  A full 100% of all money raised goes to DIGDEEP's water access projects (like wells).  DIGDEEP Water is a registered 501(c)3 human rights organization that defends the human right to water for all people on earth.   http://www.scribd.com/doc/166863900/Pledge-Sheet-Newtown-Walk-4-Water-2013  Will you Walk 4 Water?
