Hello and thanks for stopping by!

My name is Merete and I am going to be running a half marathon in May with the intention of raising money for water.org; an organization that works toward providing safe water for people around the world.

The constant availability to clean water from our taps is a daily luxury that we don’t appreciate enough. Imagine having to walk miles every day to collect water that might make you sick. Around the world, more than 780 million people lack access to safe water. This negatively impacts their health, keeps children out of school, and traps millions of people in a cycle of poverty.

I joined team.water.org to help raise both awareness and money. Every time I race, I match the race fee with an equal donation. For $25 (150 kr), water.org can give one person access to safe water for life. And now I hope that you can help me make a bigger difference, by providing safe water for 30 people.

Please support me May 31st by donating some of your hard earned cash to a worthy cause. 150 kr can buy you 5 melkesjokolader or give water access to a human being. I, your conscious, and your pants would appreciate if you chose the latter.
