Murakoze! (Thank You!)

Thank you everyone for coming out this morning for the best Run for the Water yet. Over 2000 of you came out on a perfect morning for the 10-miler, 5K and Kid’s K. Special thanks to our sponsors, volunteers, and neighbors along the course. We couldn’t do it without you. Just about every one of you is helping another person gain access to clean water for life.

Run for the Water – This Week!

The Gazelle Foundation’s Run for the Water is the premier 10-mile, 5K and Kids’s K  in Texas and our largest annual fundraiser.  This year’s race date is Sunday, October 31. One doesn’t have to race to participate, as we have various opportunities to volunteer on or before race day. By taking part in the race you are helping us ensure the continued success of our water projects in Burundi which have thus far guaranteed over 3,000 citizens access to clean water for the remainder of their life.

Whether you want to Volunteer, run the 10-miler5K, or Kids K, know that you’re helping change the world. There are many Reasons To Run, but welcome to what we consider as the best one!

Murakoze!
