Quench Their Thirst-Help the People of Haiti by Walking for Water on March 20th!

Here at Rick Hendrick Dodge Chrysler Jeep, we are strongly tied with the community and support local events and charities on a regular basis. Helping these events gain support and interest is just one of the ways that Rick Hendrick Dodge Chrysler Jeep contributes and we just wanted to take a moment to provide you some additional information on a wonderful event you can participate in coming up on March 20th.

The "Quench Their Thirst" walk for water benefits Water Missions International's efforts to raise money to build water tanks supplying clean water to Haiti and beyond.

The event is a 3.5 mile walk at Cannon Park Downtown at 9AM on March 20th. The entry fee is only $10, which includes a very cool locally designed Haiti t-shirt. Please be sure to pass the information along to friends and loved ones! The more support we can get, the more we can help!

Here are some facts found on the event website and additional information on how you can participate:

"88 cents on the dollar donated to Water Missions International goes in the field. They are one of the few charities nationwide to receive a 4 star ranking by non-profit watchdog, Charity Navigator."

"Each WMI water tank provides clean drinking water for 3,000 people (5,000 in emergency situations like Haiti) for 20+ years. It's not a band-aid. It's a sustainable way of life."


We are proud to be raising awareness for this event and we hope to see you there!
