Casey and the crew at the Burns High School FFA Chapter just blew the doors of their Water Challenge fundraiser! We got a letter a few minutes ago from the team. Here are some excerpts…
“Our FFA Chapter wanted to take on a task that would impact the world. An officer, Alison K., … proceeded to research it and learn about all the different programs that would allow us to help build a well. After careful consideration she selected The Water Project.org as a worthy organization.
After careful brainstorming…we came up with “Well Week” that would be focused entirely on raising money to fund the building of a well in India. The week before “Well Week” we started The Water Challenge. We showed the video of The Water Project to let people see how they could come up with money by drinking water.

The “Well Week” and The Water Challenge went better than expected. We had over 200 people sign-up…we raised a total of $2,848.38!!
The opportunity to help others puts a joy in your heart like nothing else can. Our whole school was able to be a part of something that will forever change people’s lives…We look forward to seeing the project completed.
