During our Social Studies lesson on "Long Ago and Now" we learned that long ago people used wells to get water. Now, we can turn on a tap and get water whenever we need it. Beloved Kindergartners were shocked to find out that some people in the world still do not have access to running water or a well! We wanted to do something to help. We are giving up juice, milk, and all other drinks besides water for two weeks and donating the re-purposed money to The Water Project to help give water to those who need it.
Did you know nearly 1 billion people don't have safe water to drink?
Together, we can change that. Let's fund a new source of drinking water for those who suffer needlessly without it!
Our gifts will be used to construct or rehabilitate a water project, like a well or sand dam, in Africa. We'll see pictures, GPS coordinates, and updates as they come in from the actual water project we fund so we can celebrate the results along with the community we help.
