Join Water4 in their "Walk4Water 2020"

For millions around the world, today began with a long walk to collect water.
Mile after mile… hour after hour… 40 pounds at a time…
... to and from watering holes, lakes, and streams riddled with disease.
Every day, they fill their buckets over and over again with unsafe water that brings
sickness and pain. 
Every hour they spend walking for water is one less hour for school, work, or time
with loved ones.

This clean water kiosk was established by Water4 and its local partners in Ghana.

The annual 'Walk4Water' brings local awareness of a global hardship for many people.

Water4 is an Oklahoma City-based international nonprofit using faithinnovation and empowerment to reimagine a world

where all people have access to safe water.


Water4 equips local entrepreneurs in developing countries to provide sustainable safe water access to every homeschool and clinic in their communities. This approach puts the solution to local water problems in the hands of local people ensuring safe water access is sustained by local resources.

Since 2008, Water4 and our partners have impacted the lives of over 1.4 million people in more than 30 countries through the power of safe and living water.
