Fundraising purpose
The event supports a World Vision water project. The materials state that six kilometers is the average distance women and children in the developing world walk daily for water. For every $50 raised by donors or participants, World Vision will provide sustainable, clean water to one woman or child. The 2026 fundraising goal is $20,000 to provide water to 400 individuals.
