Beaufort ~ Walk for Water


Event Details


Join the second annual Beaufort Walk for Water at Live Oaks Park in Port Royal.
The Walk for Water promotes awareness of the global water crisis while raising funds to provide sustainable safe water around the world. All donations benefit Water Mission, a nonprofit Christian engineering organization that builds safe water solutions in developing countries and disaster areas.
To sign up for the walk or to make a donation, visit events.watermissions.org/beaufort18 or call 843-769-7395. The event is open to people of all ages and is dog-friendly.
 
On-site registrations open at 8 am, opening ceremonies take place at 8.30 am, and the walk starts at 9 am. After the opening ceremonies, every participant will be provided an empty bucket and begin to walk the approximately three-mile route. Halfway through the route, walkers fill their bucket with raw water and carry it the rest of the way back to the park to symbolize the walk that millions of women and children make every single day to collect what is often unsafe drinking water.
