You Did It

Thank you so much! Your donations to Gilbert's 30th-anniversary campaign helped us reach our goal and secure a $10,000  matching grant!

That means your donation helps twice as many people in Burundi access the life-changing power of clean water.

The campaign was created In remembrance of the tragic events of 1993, and to celebrate the strength in resilience of Gilbert’s 30th anniversary. Thank you for honoring Gilbert and furthering his legacy of making the world a better more compassionate place.  

We look forward to updating you on the impact of your support! Start to finish updates on the work you make possible.


30th Anniversary Highlights
Walking Towards Forgiveness: 1993 - 2023

To honor the anniversary of Gilbert's second chance at life, Gilbert gathered with friends, the Gazelle Foundation Board and Advisory members to carry water jugs from Lady Bird Lake to the Capitol building.

During the event, Mary Ann Frishman presented Gilbert with a special certificate of congratulations signed by Austin Mayor Kirk Watson.  The anniversary walk brings awareness to the water problem in Burundi, its solution, and the profound impact our supporters have in providing clean water to those who need it most. Learn more about Burundi.
