Turn your everyday miles into real change!
Canadians walk an average of four miles each and every day. That means that even if you didn’t change ANYTHING about your daily routine, other than turning on the Charity Miles app whenever you went out walking, you would travel 1,461 Miles in ONE YEAR. That means that by the end of the year, you would have raised ~USD$365 for Charity: water!
$365 brings clean, safe drinking water to more than half a dozen people for the rest of their lives; preventing diseases such as cholera, typhoid, and dysentery in addition to saving up to 2,900 hours of water gathering per year for women and children, giving them the opportunity to become educated, and to help lift their families out of a cycle of poverty.
How Does it Work?
“As you walk, run, or bike, the app tracks your distance. Bikers earn 10 cents per mile for their charity; walkers and runners earn 25 cents per mile. The money comes from our company and we get corporate sponsors to back us in order to achieve their marketing objectives” ~Charity Miles
