The World Partnership Walk is a story of Canadians leading change
Description
The WPW volunteers, fundraisers, donors, and sponsors have stepped forward year after year to make a meaningful and lasting impact globally. The $135+ million raised through the Walk to date has contributed directly to over 180 initiatives in 15 countries that have reduced poverty and improved the quality of life for millions in Africa and Asia.
Funds raised through the Walk have unlocked support from the Government of Canada and other partners, enabling our programs to reach more people, address shared Canadian priorities, draw on Canadian expertise, and share lessons and best practices for tackling global poverty. They engage 40,000 Canadians every year through the World Partnership Walk. Not only do they raise funds through the Walk, but they also raise awareness, build knowledge, and inspire Canadians to take action to fight global poverty.
