Walking for Water is a fundraising and awareness event where kids and adults walk 6 kilometers, carrying 6 liters of water in a backpack. That’s just under 4 miles, and is the average distance that women and girls in developing countries must walk every day, typically carrying 20 liters (5.2 gallons) of water.
By participating in the Walking for Water campaign, you can learn about local and global water issues and take action to improve the lives of other kids!
After the Walk, join us for free activities as part of Global Youth Service Day from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Make earth-friendly crafts, learn about drought-friendly gardening, check out the Beautifully Absurd environmental labyrinth. Have fun, give back to your community and enjoy lunch made in a solar oven!
8:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m., Nellie N. Coffman Middle School, 34603 Plumley Road, Cathedral City
