Gazelle Foundation
The Gazelle Foundation was founded in 2006 in Austin, Texas by a group of runners interested in helping others. The Gazelle Foundation now includes runners, walkers, couch potatoes, kids, students and others working to help people in Burundi. The Gazelle Foundation funds and builds clean water projects in Burundi, Africa - the country where Gilbert and Bernard grew up. One of the poorest countries on earth, most people in rural Burundi walk over two miles for untreated water from streams and puddles, often shared with livestock. Illness from waterborne infections is high, and a major factor in limiting access to education and economic stability. Through clean water projects, the Gazelle Foundation is offering a first step in breaking the cycle of poverty in Burundi.
