Story
We are taking part in the Stanmore Jafferys Running Sportive for WF-AID's Ali Asghar Water Appeal and will walk/run 10km along with a group of about 50 other women and girls to help raise funds for this amazing cause!
Today, 1 in 9 people lack access to safe water and 1 in 3 people lack access to a toilet. This results in a child dying every 2 minutes from contracting waterborne diseases.
For over ten years, the Ali Asghar Water Appeal has strived to provide better access to water for many water-scarce communities. This year, we aim to further build long-term sustainable water solutions across communities in Pakistan, India, Afghanistan, Palestine and Kenya.
