Sydney Water

Why we're walking, running & riding for water this October.

696 million people in the world, almost one in ten, do not have clean water close to home. Every day, women and children walk long distances to collect and carry water for their families. Many children begin collecting water at a young age, and girls often continue to collect and carry water throughout their lives. Many girls spend hours each day collecting water, which can cause them to miss time at school. Not only that, but the water they are forced to collect is sometimes dirty, carrying waterborne diseases and leading to sickness in their community.

We're walking for water, so that they don't have to.

By walking, running or riding for five days, you can raise awareness and funds so that people around the world can access clean water for the first time.

Join they Sydney Water team by selecting the JOIN US button above or donate to our fundraising page if you can. For just $50, WaterAid could buy water system tools to provide a rural community with clean water.

The more people that know about WaterAid, the more we can achieve together.

Please spread the word with your friends and family. Thank you in advance for your generosity. It means a lot!
