Walk to the Water

I've started volunteering with an organization called Sisters in Service (http://www.sistersinservice.org). We work alongside locals in many countries where women and girls don't receive the basic human rights. Our goal is to meet the physical and spiritual needs of our sisters, often teaching them skills that will help them make a living.

A few weeks ago, a local chapter hosted a Walk to the Water, a fundraiser for a project they've adopted in India. We got to walk a few miles with water buckets to go draw water, like our sisters in many places throughout Africa and Asia who walk 5 miles to get water. (We didn't actually walk that distance with a big water bucket because we got to carry a 2 year old)...This is Brayden trying to carry water with Greg.
