Celebrate International Women’s Day by making a real difference!
Starting March 8th, join thousands of Canadians in the fight against poverty. Sign up, get pledges and walk 8,000 steps a day for 8 days, to empower women and girls around the world.
Walk In Her Shoes is a CARE Canada campaign where participants challenge themselves and their friends and family to walk and raise money to support women, families and communities around the world. Last year, thousands of Canadians rose to the challenge and together raised over $100,000 to support CARE’s work around the globe.
Why Walk In Her Shoes?
Women and girls in developing countries are disproportionately affected by poverty. They are often the ones responsible for walking 6 kilometers or more each day to collect water, firewood and other basic necessities – necessities that keep their families alive. This leaves little time to attend school, access healthcare and earn money to support their families.
CARE empowers women and girls by working to improve gender equality, improving access to health services, building and rehabilitating water/sanitation systems, improving access to education and supporting economic development.
What Can You Do?
Join the 'Walk with JOY' team and commit to walking 8,000 steps for 8 days starting on March 8th, 2012. A great way to get in shape AND you are contributing to global change at the same time!
The commitment fee is $20.00 and once officially registered, you will receive a Walk In Her Shoes kit, with a pedometer to track your steps and information to kick-start your fundraising efforts.
Donations raised for Walk in Her Shoes will empower women, girls and communities around the world to overcome poverty and adversity.
