The Walk for Water and Benefit Concert are rounding the bend. We hope you have marked your calendars for the two-day fundraising extravaganza on Sunday, March 21 and Monday, March 22. Sign up at our site today and corral some friends to form a relay team. You can test your strength (how much water can you carry?), speed (how fast can you walk?), and smarts (can you answer all the Millennium Development Goal questions?).
What you need to know:
When: Sunday, March 21, 2010
11am-3pm Festivities including a non-profit fair, food and drink, speakers and a screening of FLOW
Walk begins at 1pm
Where: World Trade Center Plaza
Why: To learn about the worldwide water crisis and to raise money to build wells in Tanzania.
How: Amble around the Willamette for a scenic 3.1-mile route carrying a bucket of water (or not!)
*See our video on the two pumps installed in Kenya last month thanks to fundraising from last year’s Walk for Water.
World Water Day Benefit Concert
3-Leg Torso headlines our benefit concert adding to the “bucket” of funds that will be directed toward Water for All, the organization that builds wells in sub-Saharan Africa. Obo Addy and Loveness Wesa round out the line-up. For a tidy $20, you can join us at the Aladdin Theater on Monday, March 22 starting at 6pm.
Tickets available at Ticketmaster or at the Aladdin Box Office.
