We truly couldn’t have done it without you. Thanks to you we had:

  • 18 incredible fundraisers and ambassadors

  • 1,656 runners and walkers, and bikers

  • from 30 states

  • and 13 countries

  • as far away as Malaysia

We are absolutely blown away by your commitment and generosity. Especially in these challenging times, you have shown us the power of what we can achieve when we work together to lift up everyone in our global community. We can’t say it enough: Thank you!


You Run We Dig

When you Run For The Water, your registration and donations directly fund the development of sustainable water systems in Burundi. You directly affect the number of children, families, and communities who receive a lifetime of clean water.

Your Impact

Clean water changes everything. When together we give the gift of clean water, we improve communities’ health, education and safety. 

Residents of Musenyi Colline share how their lives improved because of the clean water system built by the Gazelle Foundation (90-second video). Your support of this year’s Global Run For The Water will provide a lifetime of clean water to more families and communities in Burundi.
