AQUAQUEST 6K
Walk Together. Water Forever.
AquaQuest 6K is a student-led global initiative that transforms awareness into action. Through a unique immersive experience, participants complete a 6-kilometer challenge while carrying water, offering a powerful glimpse into the daily struggle millions of children and young people across Africa endure simply to access clean water.
"More Than a Walk"
Every step raises awareness of the global water crisis, inspires a commitment to « sustainable living, and helps fund safe drinking water systems in underserved communities. More than a fundraiser, AquaQuest 6K empowers the next generation to turn empathy into action and create lasting change.
Climate change is accelerating the global water crisis, making access to clean water increasingly scarce for millions around the world.
2.2
Billion
people around the world lack access to safely managed drinking water
346
Billion
liters of drinking water are lost every day before reaching the people who need it most
250
Million
hours are spent every day by women and girls collecting water
The global water crisis is more than an environmental challenge;
it is a matter of equity, dignity, and environmental justice.
Walk Together
We aim to better understand the hardships faced by children who must walk up to 6 kilometers every day to collect water by taking on the same journey ourselves. Participants walk 6 kilometers while carrying a jerry can filled with water, gaining a firsthand appreciation of the physical challenges millions of children face simply to access clean water.
Water Forever
The funds raised through the walkathon are donated to World Vision to support the construction of sustainable clean water systems in developing countries. In previous years, these contributions have helped install safe and reliable water systems in communities across Sri Lanka and Kenya, providing long-term access to clean drinking water for those in need.
