Collecting water on a daily basis is a job that is usually done by women in many parts of the world. But the journey is longer than it should be for many and a strain on their bodies as they make the return trip carrying heavy water containers, containers often filled with unsafe water.  

For a woman, the average step length is 26.4 inches (67cm). To complete the marathon takes 62,926 steps. They walk 6 kilometers on a daily basis for the journey to water.  This means that the average woman in rural Kenya walks a marathon every week - just to collect water for her family.  With your help we will raise this amount of money to complete a water project in Keyna.

By crossing the finish line and getting your friends or family to donate to The Water Project you can help 300 people, including 80 women, by building a new, safe water supply closer to their homes, giving them better health and more time for activities that develop themselves and their families.
