About
Hi and thanks for visiting my home page.

Over the course of my life I have never regretted saying YES to something that stretches me and challenges me for the sake of others. That's why I said YES when invited to run the Tokyo Marathon with Team World Vision. I'm taking on this huge challenge to help provide life-changing clean water to children and communities in the developing world.

Nearly 1,000 children under age 5 die every day from diarrhea caused by contaminated water, poor sanitation, and improper hygiene. But we believe the global water and sanitation crisis can be solved within our lifetimes. ...

$50 = clean water for 1 person

Will you invest in the future and provide clean water for 1, 2, 3, or even more people?

My fund raising goal is massive and I hope you will join me and together we can contribute to bring a better life to the thousands of children suffering in the DR Congo. Thank you and click on the link below to donate. For the sake of others, Jill Ireland

Saw all my World Vision compadres out there getting their runs done including Kerry here. Feeling blessed to have impacted over 200 children in the Congo with clean water, and a future.
