On Saturday, May 19, people from around the globe will unite through the world’s biggest 6K for clean water, World Vision’s Global 6K for Water, and walk or run 6 kilometers for an extraordinary cause, stated World Vision in a recent press release.
“Last year, over 28,000 people in countries around the world ran and walked to bring clean water to those in need.
Participating in World Vision’s Global 6K, every step taken is one they won’t have to, said Colquitt.
Each registration (adults, $50; children, $25 if 18 or younger) provides lasting clean water to a child, the release said.
The $50 registration fee provides clean water for one person, so when more people sign up, more children will be freed of the deadly diseases and the treacherous walks that come with a lack of clean water.
Clean water frees children from deadly diseases, liberates women and children from a life spent gathering dirty water, and opens the door to education, a promising future, and a full life.
World Vision is the largest nongovernmental provider of clean water in the developing world, reaching one new person with clean water every 10 seconds and reaching three more schools every day with clean water.
In 2017, World Vision provided access to clean water to 3.2 million people, the release states.
