Event summary
Get ready to lace up your sneakers for the inaugural Move for Maji Walkathon, happening throughout March 2023 in Kings, New York! From March 1st to March 31st, students and walkers from FDR High School in Brooklyn will take on the challenge of walking an impressive 25,000 steps each week. This initiative not only promotes physical fitness but also raises awareness about the global water crisis. Participants aim to walk an average distance of 3 miles four times a week, echoing the real-life struggles faced by many who lack access to clean drinking water.
Each walker is also on a mission to raise $100, which will fund a biosand filter for a family in Tanzania, providing over 20 years of safe drinking water. Join this uplifting movement to change lives and make a tangible difference in the world! Sign up or donate today to support this remarkable cause and help ensure that everyone has access to clean water. How many lives can we change together this month? The answer lies in your hands!
