- Walk for Water, March 8, 2020
In March, MCWC joined Majok Marier and other Lost Boys of Sudan in a Walk for Water to raise awareness and money for the Wells for Hope foundations. Wells for Hope builds wells in South Sudan. Without the wells, women and girls must walk four to six miles one way each day for fresh, clean water for their families. After providing clean water and sanitation, Wells for Hope plans to start a clinic.
Majok on World Water Day installed a water well in Luelpanang, South Sudan. Everyone is super happy with this, as it reaches people who are about 25 miles east of Rumbek, a large town in Lakes State area of the country, a very underdeveloped part of the world that was without access to clean water.
The Legislative Action Center is a powerful tool for GFWC’s public issues and advocacy efforts. Track bills, contact your local representative and take action on issues germane to GFWC Resolutions.
