Pledge $1/mile to provide a lifetime of safe drinking water

Register now for the Blue Planet Run 30-Mile Challenge! We need 1,000 athletes to complete 30 miles within 30 days starting October 1. By registering at $1/mile, we can provide 1,200 kids in Tanzania with safe drinking water. Go to www.blueplanetrun.org/30-mile for more details!

If you need a good excuse to start exercising – this is a great one. If you are already an athlete, just do what you are already doing and apply those miles to this cause! This nationwide campaign allows you to form a team, find a team or go solo. Complete the 30 miles when and where you’d like – it’s easy!

These kids in Tanzania are waiting for us to build wells at their schools. Currently, they leave class each day to search for water. They often resort to a hand-dug open pit used by animals and people for everything! It’s filthy and kids get sick…missing more school. By providing a source of safe drinking water, students focus on their education. The schools can grow vegetable gardens and create a healthy source of food and even a small business opportunity for the community.

This is a campaign for October only and registration starts now! Please help this worthy cause by telling others too! You can download a flyer on the website under “What More Can You Do.”

Make your miles meaningful. Go to www.blueplanetrun.org/30-mile for more details.
