What? Aveda Walk For Water
When? 21 April 2012 (Sunday): 8:00am
Where? The Square, Publika
Why? Aveda Walk for Water is an international charity campaign driving public action towards providing clean water to communities in need. This year, the walk will take place at the Square, Publika Mall, Solaris Dutamas, Kuala Lumpur. The 2.5 km mass walk symbolises the distance individuals without clean water supply have to walk for fresh water. Through the walk, Aveda aims to generate awareness to the local water crisis faced by rural communities and islanders in Malaysia.
The Malaysian leg of Aveda’s Walk for Water is in support of EcoKnight’s H2O Project (Help to Offer Safe Drinking Water to Mantanani) on the island of Mantanani (Sabah) where the funds raised will assist in delivering safe and clean drinking water to some 1200 villagers on the island. It may be a popular tourist diving site, but locals on the island do not have potable water supply. The project’s master plan includes securing a sustainable management plan to improve the livelihoods for the islanders. Participation is FREE however registration is encouraged.
On that day, donate a minimum of RM20 and take home a limited edition Aveda cap.
How far? 2.5km
