Why Julie Metteer is fundraising for clean water

So I came up with a kinda crazy idea...that every day, for 90 days I'm going to walk 5K in honor of the women and children who have to walk sometimes up to 5 hours a day, carrying 5 gallon buckets to and from their water source just to provide clean water for their families.

But beyond just honoring them, I want to FREE at LEAST one person from this journey for every walk I do. Just $20 brings one person clean water for 20 years.

For those of you who know me, this is a BIG deal. I'm not exactly what you'd call a "regular exerciser" LOL so this will be a genuine challenge. Can you help keep me motivated by helping to fund at least one walk? Thank you for supporting the basic human need for water, and in a different way, for supporting me too.

If you want to do a simillar campaign please let me know and I can set it up - I'd love some walking buddies and the more the merrier! Email me at julie@metteer.com
