great opportunity around campus that YOU could help out with!

So my friend Cat told me about this amazing opportunity one friday night and i wanted to share it with you....if you are interested in doing this there will be a table set up this week around lunch and dinner time so you can sign up to be apart of this amazing opportunity to be a cosmopolitan :)....heres what its about::


H2O Project: Impacting the global water crisis
According to the World Health Organization, every 8 seconds a child dies from water-related illness and 1.2 billion people around the world lack access to clean water.
The H2O Project calls on individuals to help address these concerns by making water their only beverage for two weeks, then donating the money they would have spent on coffee, soda, sports drinks, and other beverages to organizations that drill clean water wells in developing countries.

Members of the campus community who would like to take part in this effort can stop by the H2O Challenge table in the cafeteria between Monday, April 2, and Thursday, April 5. Donations can be returned to the same place between Monday, April 16, and Thursday, April 19. All funds raised will go directly to well-drilling organizations such as Lifewater International, Living Water International, Water for People, and World Vision.

For more information, contact Catherine Morrison by phone at 6-2360 or e-mail at cmorr03s@uis.edu, or Gretchen Magruder by phone at 498-7749 or e-mail at Gretchen@uiscsf.org.

I got that from the school website and i just think that it is a great opportunity to help give to people who need it...can you imagine, just a dollar would give a person water for a year..thats less than we spend on one bottle of water!!!!!!!!!!
Even if you cant give two weeks for this opportunity find someone who is wearing a blue H2O project wristband and give them a couple bucks and tell them it is for the H2O project, or stop by the table!
