Why #IWalkForGirlsAndWater2021

I've been working for this nonprofit, WomenServe, for 7 months! And in these short months, I have seen massive impact, lives changed, and my life has been one of them! 

It pains me to read the statistics and hear first hand accounts of how badly these women and girls are treated. Here are just a few of them...

  • 20% of girls are married before the age of 14... FOURTEEN! My stomach turns.
  • 71% of girls are married before the age of 18. 
  • Women and girls spend 10 hours a day walking for water in the hot desert heat. 

WomenServe first solves the walking for water problem by building Taankas (traditional rainwater catchment systems) so that women are freed from the generational burden of walking for water. 

When she has water...

  • she can start a business (something I am personally helping these women with)
  • Her daughters can go to school and get an education and write her own future! 
  • Health and hygiene can be addressed and women and girls can lead healthier lives. 

Will you please support this walkathon and the work that WomenServe is doing? Your life could be changed as well! I know mine sure has been. 

With Much Gratitude.
