1. We had a strong injection of new enthusiasm this year: more than 1,000 new ambassadors and more than 100 new teams joined the fight against global poverty in 2013
2. Support from generous corporate sponsors and businesses continue to be integral to the Walk’s success, with more than $2 million raised through these channels.
3. In 2013, the Walk went social – fans entered contests, submitted their photos, and shared their passion with other Walk supporters across the country via a national Walk Facebook page (www.facebook.com/wpwalk). And in May, a Walk flashmob hit the streets of Toronto with a captivating performance by more than 80 Walk supporters. Visit the Walk YouTube Channel (www.youtube.com/user/WorldPartnershipWalk) to see their inspiring video.
