INDIANOLA, Iowa (March 8th, 2014) – On March 8, 2014 The Move Project, in connection with the Indianola YMCA, is hosting their first annual Indoor Water Ride. This event is part of their annual signature event, The Water Ride. Ride for a cause, and help raise the funds needed to install a clean water well in Ghana, West Africa. 100% of the proceeds will be allocated to water projects in Ghana.
Registration begins at 9:30 a.m. in the lobby of the Indianola YMCA, located at 306 East Scenic Valley Ave., Indianola IA 50125. The ride will begin at 10:00 a.m. in the YMCA’s cycling studio. You do NOT have to be a current YMCA member to participate in this event – everyone is welcome! Riders will register for one-hour increments and the event will run for six hours in total. All riders are welcome to sign up for more than one time slot.
Last year’s ride helped us fund a well in Ghana. We will continue installing additional wells in Ghana, as well as trenching water lines to reach people throughout the community to prevent the continued use of contaminated water sources. The network of wells will also serve as locations for sanitation training to introduce basic sanitation standards in the communities.
