We (Melissa Zeylez, Megan Semones and Michele Semones) are participating in the 5K in Detroit on October 20th. We are doing this race as a team to raise money for wells that provide clean drinking water for the Pokot tribe in Kenya. This year has been very different than last with injury challenges, however, we are continuing to follow God along this crazy journey.

Please help us raise funds for the Pokot! The women especially have to walk 4-5 hours a day just to find water. Once they do, it is dirty, muddy and full of diseases. We can't imagine anything worse than having to give kids dirty drinking water. Most times, a well is put in, the government builds a school and then a community is formed. Water truly brings new life and hope to the hopeless. We are doing this for them and it has been a huge blessing to us; building confidence, making new friends and receiving joy in making a difference. Please help us in our efforts. GO HOPE!
