Over 750 attendees joined Wells of Life’s fourth annual Run4Water 5K and 1K last month, held for the first time at Mile Square Park in Fountain Valley. An estimated $246,000 was generated by 56 teams to provide clean water to the people of Uganda, Africa.
The fundraising goal of each Run4Water team was $6,000, the cost for one well that provides clean water for 1,000 people for up to 25 years. All non-well expenses are raised through private donations, so 100% of donations go directly to drilling and maintaining the water wells.
