Run for Water Society is a non-profit organization that raises money for clean water projects in Ethiopia. Envision Financial Run for Water is hosting a multi-distance race event, including Half Marathon, 10k Run, and 5k Fun Run. When you register to run, you have the option of running solo, or creating a team to run together.
The Half Marathon route winds its way around beautiful Mill Lake, then a steady decline out to the south side of Abbotsford. At the halfway mark, the course turns at Farmer Rd where the beauty of the surrounding countryside will hopefully make you forget the rolling hills. Flat again at the top, with a great loop around the University of the Fraser Valley, a quick downhill to get the legs moving again and then homeward back to the start. This course is open to runners and walkers.
The average person in North America is only 5 seconds away from clean water…the average person in Ethiopia is a 5 hour walk away from water.
This shouldn’t be. BUT YOU CAN CHANGE THIS.
Money raised by donating and fundraising goes to providing clean water which means that girls no longer have to go on daily journeys in search of contaminated water. With access to safe, clean, drinking water, kids in the village can go to school, mothers can start businesses, fathers can water their crops, and children no longer die of waterborne diseases.
THIS YEAR DON’T JUST RUN, RAISE FOR THE VILLAGES of Freselem and Dengali Ethiopia.
