Barakat's Third Annual Walk for Literacy
Barakat's Third Annual Walk for Literacy! In Afghanistan, only 18% of girls can read. Join us, along with Mayor of Cambridge David Maher and Liz Walker, former WBZ-TV news anchor, as we walk to make a difference. Take a step forward for girls' education in Afghanistan! Come walk 2.5 or 5 miles (you choose!) with Barakat to raise awareness and funds for the education of women and children in Afghanistan, India, and Pakistan. Relax after the walk with music, entertainment, food, family, and prizes. Registration is $25 and register by October 1 to be eligible to win a Kindle! Your support will help to educate thousands of women and children. The Walk for Literacy is a charity walk through Cambridge. The funds you raise will support Barakat's 26 home-based literacy programs serving more than 700 girls and women in Afghanistan. The statement you make by walking will reflect your commitment to education for the underprivileged. The Walk begins at 10am on Saturday, October 16, 2010 in Cambridge Common.
