At MissionCleanWater, we're not just a nonprofit organization; we're dedicated to developing equitable clean water solutions and have long term successful solutions

🌟 Our Mission: Empowering underserved communities with access to clean drinking water and sanitation, we strive to break the chains of waterborne diseases and create a ripple effect of economic prosperity. Since 2018, we have provided clean water to 50,000 community members in Uganda and supply 2,000 gallons of clean water weekly to USA communities affected by lead contamination.

💧 Why We Race for Clean Water: Completing these adventure would not be possible without having clean drinking water. It gives us an opportunity to take a step in women and children's shoes who are walking to collect water every day.

On Adventure Day, here's what to expect. Once registered, our team will guide you on what to expect and help you plan for the big day. On Adventure Day, we will gather at the South Mountain Reservation parking area in Milburn at 7 am. We'll load up our two support vans and carpool to the trailhead in Newark, NJ, starting the adventure promptly at 8 am.

Every participant will be sent an adventure packet when they register and one week prior to the start date so you have all the information you need. In your adventure packets and during virtual meetings, you'll find valuable tips on using mobile GPS apps, trail navigation, and required gear to bring.. The trail will feature 5 checkpoints spaced 3-8 miles apart, offering resupplies for food, hydration, and the option to drop off or grab extra layers. We'll ensure every adventurer is supported, and at the finish line – back where we started – you'll be all set! We'll wait for each participant, celebrating the completion of an incredible journey.

This project has been in continuous development for since the summer of 2024. The borehole and solar energy aspects have all been completed.
