Erica's Water Walk
Story
I am aiming to raise money for people without access to clean water by way of a water walk with two 5-10 litre containers. I believe we take our access to clean water so easily for granted. When I travelled to South Sudan, I met women who had to walk over 6kms every day to obtain the water that their families needed every day. What amazed me was their endurance and strength. It is not so much just the distance they travel, as the strength it requires to carry it. Water is heavy, and enough for your families needs for a full day is very heavy!
When?
Sunday 17th April
Where?
From West Epping Uniting Church to Baronia Park and back. This 4km walk is a lesser distance than women and children in the developing world typically walk to collect water each day. The weight of water that women in Africa and Asia carry on their heads is commonly 20kg.
I am then planning on making that my only water supply for the next 24 hours. That will be even more of a challenge.
