MORE THAN A RACE
Run for Water. Run for West Virginia.
Flowing Forward brings the community together around one of West Virginia's most important resources: water.
Proceeds from the event will support Engineers Without Borders at West Virginia University and its work addressing water-related challenges through engineering, education, service, and community partnerships.
The 5K will also serve as a water drive, collecting bottled water and monetary donations to help provide drinking water to West Virginia communities experiencing water outages and limited access to reliable water.
Whether you run, walk, volunteer, sponsor, or donate, your participation helps build a healthier and more resilient future for West Virginia communities.
