 The Precious Child Foundation would like to say a great big Thank You! to everyone who supported the walk. We could not have done it without our walkers, sponsors, and amazing volunteers. We had so much fun! This year we added a few new things. Thanks to a generous donor, we were able to give hot dogs and treats to all our walkers and volunteers! Another change added this year was when our walkers checked in, they were given a statement to wear on their back. Each statement was a reflection of the current problems that people face when they are forced to use unclean water sources. Lots of aha moments were shared among the walkers and volunteers as they read about what it might be like to walk for water every day. For example, did you know the drinking water you would have to haul for miles would also be your bath water later that day? We have currently raised enough money for one clean water well, but we still have two more to go. It's an amazing feeling to know that together we have changed the lives of 500 people and the future generations that will benefit from that well. If you had planned to give, but time got away from you, there's still time to get involved. Just visit our donate page and give through our website. If you'd like to see your money go twice as far, then stop by Tulsa Braces. Every donation given through Tulsa Braces will be matched, up to $1,750. So with your donation and the Tulsa Braces matching grant, we can cover the cost of the second clean water well. As we mentioned in an earlier blog post, our goal for this year's Walk for Water event was to raise enough funds for three water wells. As you continue to donate, whether by giving through Tulsa Braces or through our website, we will continue to move closer to our three well goal. We deeply appreciate your participation in any and all forms, and we look forward to announcing very soon that we have reached our fund-raising goal. Thank you in advance for helping us make it happen! 100% of all monies raised goes to the clean water wells. All overhead expenses and food costs were donated by private donors to support our walk. |
