Hershey High School Key Club’s 10th Annual Walk for Clean Water will be held on Sunday, April 13th from 12-3pm, at Hershey High School. Launched in 2016 by a group of ambitious students in Hershey, Pennsylvania, Walk for Clean Water has since grown into a national movement of community-based walks that raise funds and awareness to fight the global water crisis. Student-led and youth-driven, we aim to see the end of the water crisis in our lifetime. Click here to learn more and register.
