Marie's WaterAid Fundraiser Swim

You've probably seen that I have been taking part in WaterAid's Big Spring Swim.  I'm so proud that I swam 8.850km to raise money for remote global communities without accessible clean water and hygienic toilets.

If you'd like to show support, it's not too late!  You can still donate to my page by clicking on DONATE NOW.  I have raised more than on the Facebook page.  My neighbors have donated $130 direct to me, which I will pass on to WaterAid Australia.  I understand that many people do not trust donating on Facebook due to a fear of scams.  You can independently check out the Facebook website to verify the validity of this fundraiser.  I wish everyone a safe and happy festive season. Remember to keep cool and hydrated, and to play safe at the beach and swimming pools.

Since joining the WaterAid Big Spring Swim Fundraiser, to date I have now clocked up 3,750 meters in the pool. I'm feeling pretty good about, and it's not over yet.  Please sponsor me, which is a direct donation to WaterAid.  This will help bring fresh, clean accessible water and hygienic toilets to remote villages globally.  What we take for granted, millions of people world-wide, do not have, but you can help them achieve this necessity.

Hi everyone, at last I have started my fundraiser swim today.  Only eight days late!  Why? Because I had an open wound, a graze to the arm.  I swam 550 meters today, and am intending to build up to 1k per swim, four days per week.  That's really good for me, so this WaterAid Fundraiser is good for me too.

So come on all, dig deep and help me to help WaterAid to install fresh, clean, accessible water and toilets to remote villages, globally.

Are you enjoying your fresh, clean, accessible water and your clean flushing toilet in your home?  I certainly am and I know these things should be enjoyed by everyone, everywhere.  Unfortunately, there are many people in the world who don't have these basic necessities, although it is everyone's right to have them.  WaterAid raises funds to supply clean, fresh water and hygienic toilets to those who don't have them.  If you can donate to my fundraiser swim, you will be contributing to this worthy cause, which saves lives.  Please help those around the world who are not as privileged as you and me.  

Why I'm taking the plunge

This November, I'm making a splash in WaterAid's Big Spring Swim to raise money for the 1 in 10 people worldwide who don't have clean water close to home. 

WaterAid is an international not-for-profit, determined to make clean water, decent toilets and good hygiene normal for everyone, everywhere within a generation.

With all three, people can unlock their potential, break free from poverty, and change their lives for good. Children grow up healthy and strong, women and men get to earn a living, whole communities start to thrive. 

 Every dollar raised makes a huge difference.

  • $30 can build a simple handwashing station to help stop the spread of disease
  • $50 can provide a student with clean water at school
  • $150 can help to buy a rainwater tank- so a family has clean water close to home

Please support me today.
