DESCRIPTION:
Founded in 2006 as an independent 501(c)3 organization, Global Water Challenge (GWC) works to raise awareness on our world’s most pressing water challenges and shine a light on effective solutions across developing world markets. GWC works with partners from across sectors to create innovative and sustainable partnerships that fund a number of high-impact water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) initiatives across the globe.
Travel + Leisure has formed a partnership with GWC to launch a Charitybuzz auction that will ultimately support WaterHealth International. WaterHealth utilizes a scalable model in developing world markets that deploys sustainable water purification plants, called WaterHealth Centres, to provide communities access to clean, safe and affordable drinking water for a lifetime.
The Travel + Leisure auction lot includes a variety of global vacation packages spanning four continents and once-in-a-lifetime celebrity experiences, including:
- A 6-night/7-day journey discovering India by staying in Travel + Leisure magazine's World's Best Hotel winner, The Oberi
- A 7-day Mediterranean cruise for two aboard the Seabourn
- The ultimate Houston Texans experience– four tickets on the 50-yard line and pre-field passes
- The chance to perform onstage with the Beach Boys
- A one-on-one lunch with actor, comedian and author of The Brink, Aasif Mandvi
Bidding closes on March 16, 2016 – explore the opportunities and bid today to support sustainable clean water access for thousands!
