Join Us in Ending the Long Walk for Water
He Ran 13.1 Miles to end the Long Walk
It's officially race week! Focused on getting across the race finish line, this is the final push to get me over the fundraising finish line.
There are only six days until race day and I am only $150 short of my personal fundraising goal of $1,000. A one-time $25 contribution from 6 of y'all will help me achieve that goal, and more importantly, help the many women and girls tasked with fetching water across the globe unlock their full potential.
Join me as I run/walk 13.1 miles at the 2026 IU Health 500 Festival Mini-Marathon on May 2nd, 2026 in solidarity with the strong women and girls of the world who have to make the long walk every single day to fetch water from frequently contaminated water sources. Let's end that cycle.
Every dollar you give helps expand access to safe drinking water, build strong sanitation systems, and strengthen local capacity so communities can operate and maintain these services for generations. Together, we can help families spend less time walking for water and more time going to school, earning an income, and building healthier futures.
Your support doesn’t just provide water today—it helps create sustainable solutions that will last long into tomorrow.
Help end the long walk for water. Let’s bring safe water and sanitation services to every family, in every community we serve.
