Walk4Water6 Report

“What you’re doing today is a great thing....As you Walk be filled with joy. Be filled with happiness. You are using your time to save human life.”
Dr. Emmanuel Opong

WaterAfrica's 6th Annual Walk4Water was a great success. We were blessed with a beautiful Saturday morning as a record 460 Walkers gathered at Foothills Park to hear our World Vision guests from Zambia speak about the need for clean Water, Sanitation & Hygiene (WASH) in rural Zambian villages. Dr. Emmanuel Opong and Charity Chinonge encouraged and challenged us in our effort to Raise Awareness and Funds. The need for our help is great, and the impact of our work is life-changing.

We have raised $55,000 toward our fundraising goal of $60,000. We CELEBRATE this successful effort, but we'd still like to meet our goal of $60,000 in order to provide a lifetime of WASH for 1200 Villagers in rural Zambia. Please consider donating an additional gift to help us bring life-saving, life-changing WASH to these Villagers. Thanks to the generous support of our W4W6 Corporate Sponsors, 100% of your gift is directed to World Vision's WASH program in Zambia.
