ABOUT THE RUN -

On April 19th 2015, AVEDA will be working hand in hand with EcoKnights to raise funds and awareness among the participants and public on issues related to water accessibility, pollution and water availability in Kampung Pasir Putih, Pasir Gudang, Johor.
In our latest effort in building sustainable communities in Kampung Pasir Putih, Pasir Gudang, this issue of safe and accessible drinking water is still pertinent and relevant. About 100 indigenous individuals of the Seletar tribe in Kampung Pasir Putih are relying on irregular supply and unfiltered piped water. Their current practices are rather unsustainable and with the lack of support from the relevant authorities, the quality of their current drinking and washing water is doubtful. Many villagers there earn less than 500 ringgit a month and their main economic activity is through fisheries. Now with unreliable sources of drinking water, Seletar families and their children are at risk from unsafe drinking water.
EcoKnights is working in partnership with AVEDA to raise funds to support EcoKnights development-led interventions to benefit the orang asal Seletar in Kampung Pasir Putih through the Aveda Walk for Water 2015 campaign. This campaign aims to similar the plight of communities who have to travel far to obtain water resources. Thus, as participants of the campaign, we will be walking for a distance of 3-4 km in Central Park at 1Utama, Petaling Jaya.
