Unite to Light 2nd Annual Virtual Global 5k!

Over a billion people live without electricity. Access to clean, affordable light and energy is critical to improving health, education, and prosperity. Unite to Light (UTL) is dedicated to providing low-cost solar light and power to those without electricity across the globe. UTL focuses on projects that help students study at night, equip midwives with the tools they need to save lives, offer help and hope to those suffering from natural disasters, and provide light and power to our neighbors experiencing homelessness so they are able to connect to vital services and information. UTL is having its 2nd annual virtual global 5k this fall from September 17th-26th. Over a period of ten days, people are invited to walk, run, bike, swim, paddle, roll 5 kilometers (3.1 miles) in the location of their choosing. Participants register online at @unitetolight.org and sign up as an individual or as part of a team. Teams support projects of their choosing and cost $15 to register with no minimum fundraising commitment. Change a life. Light the world.
