Running for a Cause
Rusty Fulling, founder of Fulling Management and Accounting, has been partnering with Team World Vision to provide clean water access around the world for going on six years now. It all started when he had the idea to try and run a 5k to celebrate the big 5-0 birthday.
“One of the initiatives of Team World Vision is to raise funding and awareness towards providing clean water for people and communities that do not have access to clean water. It was staggering to learn the number of people that are still limited to only contaminated water sources. The lack of access to clean water has a devastating impact on health, life expectancy, and education.”
March 22, 2023 (today) is World Water Day in an effort to bring attention to the great importance and need for water, sanitation, and hygiene. To learn more about the hope and goal of Water Day 2023, check out this link.
Each mile and donation helps provide clean water to children and communities around the world.
This year, the event Rusty will be participating in is Hood To Coast. It is a 200 mile relay run from Mount Hood Oregon to the Oregon coastline at the end of August.
