My Story…
This November, I'm running 10 miles to raise funds for clean water access in Burundi, one of the poorest countries in the world. Through the Gazelle Foundation, founded by Gilbert Tuhabonye — a Burundian genocide survivor who ran to freedom and later carried the Olympic torch in Atlanta — every mile I run helps fund the water systems that bring health, education, opportunity, and hope to communities that need it most. I'd be so grateful for your support. Every donation, no matter the size, goes directly toward building lasting water infrastructure for the people of Burundi. Thank you for helping me turn miles into meaningful change!
Description
"You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream." C.S. Lewis
By donating to the Gazelle Foundation's Run For The Water you become part of an incredible support team for families in Burundi who need clean water.
The Gazelle Foundation knows that clean water is the key to life. But no one knows this better than the people of Burundi. For more than 11 million people, access to clean water means access to better health, stronger community, jobs, education, and most of all: hope. Together, we can transform lives and make it possible for an entire country to break from the grips of poverty and flow freely once again. When we toe the start line on November 9th, the miles run will bring safe water closer to people in Burundi. Thank you!
