World Vision works to tackle the root causes of poverty by working with children, families, and their communities to provide things like: clean water, health care, nutritious food, education, and economic opportunities.

Every time I run, I grab a bottle of clean water to drink along the way. What a simple luxury I take for granted! With your support, we can help supply needy children around the world with the clean water they need to survive!  When I heard that I could join Team World Vision to make my running more purposeful, I was filled with joy and conviction that this was what I needed to do! I laugh when I think of myself running a marathon...I have never attempted ANYTHING like this before! :) But the thought of helping so many spurs me on with every step that I take! I know there are women and children who walk MILES every day just to get to the nearest source of water, and then walk MILES back home carrying heavy buckets on their shoulders or heads. If I can help alleviate their daily burden just by running a few hours one day, it is all worth it! You can support my efforts through Team World Vision:
