WORLD WATER DAY

RUN

For You and Planet Blue

World Water Day is celebrated annually on 22 March to highlight the importance of freshwater and raise awareness of the global water crisis.
This year we are launching an exciting initiative to make a positive change and provide safe, clean water to communities in need around the world, no matter where they are. We want to guarantee this human right and make water a catalyst for a more peaceful world.

HOW FAR WOULD YOU WALK FOR WATER?

It is easy to take safe drinking water for granted. While we hardly have to go further than the next tap in a kitchen, more than 2 billion people worldwide do not have access to clean drinking water. According to the UN, 500 million of them live in Africa.

Imagine waking up every morning knowing that your first task is to walk six kilometres and carry 20 kilos of water back home. Girls and women usually bear the burden of providing water for their entire family. This responsibility leaves them exhausted and makes it very difficult for the girls to concentrate in the classroom.

But this time, WE will run those 6km for them!

BWT will donate 1 euro for every kilometre you run!

SAVE THE DATE!

Join our RUN WEEK CHALLENGE from 13-19 May and set a visible pink sign of support!

Become a ChangeMaker and run for a world where everyone has access to clean water. Our vision is clear: to Change the World, sip by sip. Your participation isn't just about running; it's about Making a Change.

We want to shape a world where all people have access to the elixir of life, WATER. By uniting under the banner of our global race, we aim to raise awareness and inspire action on the global lack of access to clean water.

RUN FOR YOU AND PLANET BLUE – because every step (and sip) you take makes a difference!

All funds raised will go towards the b.Water mission, the flagship project of the AQUA Pearls Foundation. It is a transformative project that improves people‘s long-term quality of life by building water wells.

Since the first b.waterMISSION water well was built in 2019, almost 83,000 people in Tanzania and The Gambia have gained access to clean drinking water within 150 metres of their homes. In total, almost 406 million litres will be distributed by the end of March 2024!
