We’ve created shareable resources to help you get others excited and invite your friends, family, and colleagues to walk with you. These easy-to-use materials include social media images and other downloadable items.
Then, during and after the Walk, be sure to post photos on social media and tag Water Mission. We even have GIFs to add to your Instagram stories (search for Water Mission in GIPHY). Telling others about your Walk experience is a way to keep advocating for your global neighbors and raising awareness.
While the Walk is an opportunity to help raise support for Water Mission’s efforts to put an end to the global water crisis, fundraising is not a requirement to participate. If you choose to partner with us in this way, you can find resources to raise funds here.
