Walk for Water is a community fundraising challenge supporting Africa Access Water (AfAW). Participants will complete the Water of Leith Walk - totalling 20 kilometres - to help fund solar-powered water systems that deliver clean drinking water, support food production, and generate livelihoods.

AfAW doesn’t just provide water access. We work with communities to build long-term, community-owned water systems that move families from water scarcity to economic resilience.
Every step taken helps turn distance into access—and access into impact.
