Don’t miss out on this opportunity! Join us for Empowerment in Action on Feb 28, 2026 in Austin to celebrate and advance sustainable clean water in Burundi.
Gilbert Tuhabonye, Gazelle Foundation co-founder, and many luminaries from Austin’s running community share how Run For The Water got started 19 years ago and the impact it is making in rural Burundi.
We are proud to announce Austin Swim Club as presenting partner of the Starting Line at Run For The Water. In honor of this partnership, Austin Swim Club will generously contribute $10 to the Gazelle Foundation's R4TW for every 5K and 10-Miler registration received between now and Sunday September 28th, making your registration even impactful.
Explore Burundi series feature cultural information and insights into the place where we work, and where you help us bring hope to so many. In this installment we explore Agotoki one of the famous Burundi dishes. It is rich, flavorsome, and super easy to make.
One study in Science Magazine estimated that 4 billion people don’t have clean water to access at home. That’s more than half the world’s population. In Burundi, much of the 13 million population lives in rural locations where clean water is hard to come by. Learn more about where we work.
