Review of the Day
The first Water Run in Oberwaltersdorf was far more than just a sporting event – it was a powerful symbol of unity, solidarity, and social commitment.
240 runners stood at the starting line together to support a vital cause: access to clean drinking water in Africa.
A total of €4,360 in donations was raised
The donations go directly into our WASH projects in Kenya. Specifically, we are providing the community in Kibarani with access to clean water, creating a sustainable foundation for a better future.
