Why Project Blue Life: Walk 4 Water 2011 is fundraising for clean water

Project Blue Life is a grassroots organization whose mission is to take action in helping solve the world's water crisis. We are proud to present our first project: Walk4Water: 2011 ("W4W").

The objective of the W4W project is twofold.

(1) We want to raise funds for charity: water, an organization that is uniquely focused and geared towards providing clean drinking water to those in need; charity: water. Living in an area of the world blessed with water-rich resources it is only fitting that we mobilize our community in order to give what we can to those living in water scarce parts of the world.

(2) We want to highlight the fortunate life many of us live by educating and demonstrating to others the difficult and arduous task millions of men, women and children all over the world undertake everyday in their quest for water. On their journey for survival they walk everyday for hours to collect dirty water that they will use to drink, bathe and cook their food. We can make their journey safer. We can make their journey easier…

Therefore, on Saturday, September 17, 2011 we will be walking from Kirkland Park (Kirkland, QC) as a starting point, down towards Saint-Charles Boulevard symbolically carrying 4L water bottles in “search of water”. Upon reaching the “water source” (Centennial Hall Park on Lake Saint-Louis) the water bottles will be filled with water and the second part of the walk will be returning to the starting point.

Inscribed participants will be asked to join us as we literally “walk in the shoes” of the less fortunate in order to fundraise for their cause.

Please join us on September 17th, 2011 and help to bring clean water to those in need throughout the world.

***ATTENTION***
N.B.: We have been recently notified that the tax receipts issued by charity: water are, unfortunately, NOT valid in Canada because charity: water is not registered as a charitable organization under Canadian fiscal legislation. We hope that this does not deter your decision to help support a great cause.
