UNICEF: New Yorkers walk a mile on World Water Day NEW YORK, USA, 23 March 2009 On World Water Day, hundreds of New Yorkers walked one mile in support of something that they can afford to take for granted clean drinking water. The Tap Project Water Walk gave young New Yorkers the chance to see what reality is like for the more than one billion people across the world that dont have that privilege. Walking a mile in other childrens shoes, the participants each carried a gallon of water around southern Manhattan. In many countries, children are the primary gatherers of their familys daily supply of clean, safe, drinking water, spending an entire day travelling to distant water sources instead of attending school, said President and CEO of the U.S. Fund for UNICEF Caryl Stern. The Water Walks help address not only the struggle that these children face, but the fact that they need clean water to survive, she added.
