Dubai Cares: Water Bucket Walk

Dubai Cares invites you to participate in the Water Bucket Walk, a symbolic walk-a-thon in support of children who do not have access to clean drinking water. Children in developing countries walk, on average, more than 6 km every day to collect water that is likely make them sick, thus preventing them from attending school. The water bucket walk will give the UAE community an opportunity to experience a fraction of the difficulties children in developing countries face on a daily basis, by walking 3 km carrying a bucket much like a child in a rural community would do. Each participant’s entry fee of AED 30 will provide one child access to clean drinking water in school for one year!
The walk will take place on November 20th, 2009. Registration will take place in Jumeirah Beach Park at 8 am and the walk-a-thon will commence on Jumeirah Beach Road at 9 a.m. Each participant will receive a Dubai Cares T-shirt and water bucket.
