Walk for Water
March 23 @ 9:00 am - 12:30 pm
Join the MPPC Team at the 2024 Walk for Water, have fun, and help raise money for a great cause!
In 2001, George and Molly Greene started Water Mission with a vision that all people have safe water and an opportunity to experience God’s love. Molly also wanted to provide an opportunity for others to understand the day-to-day experience of the 2 billion people affected by the global water crisis. The first Walk for Water was held in Charleston, SC, which remains the location for our flagship event. Since then, churches, community groups, and corporate partners have embraced the vision for the Walk for Water, and the program has spread across the United States. As the Walk for Water continues to grow, our purpose is the same: to provide communities, organizations, and companies with an opportunity to raise awareness about the global water crisis and funds to fight it.
Millions of women and children walk more than three miles to collect water each day for their families. Often, the water collected is unsafe to drink. But there is hope.
This year, we will join together to bring clean, safe water to more than 15,000 people in need around the world.
We walk, so others don’t have to.
The event is Saturday, March 23rd 9 a.m and begins and ends at Riverfront Park in North Charleston. You’ll walk about 1.5 miles to the Water Missions International HQ where you’ll fill a bucket of water, and walk back to Riverfront Park where it will be treated by Water Mission’s Living Water Treatment System. This will clean the water and make it safe for all purposes.
When you register, make sure you join our Mount Pleasant Presbyterian Church team so that your donations raised go toward our total! More plans about the event to come in advance of March 23rd! Questions? Ask Towner Magill at towner.magill@gmail.com.
