Team Active:Water - Two Weeks of Sacrifice
Active:Water thrives off of the premise of self-sacrifice for the sake of others, especially for assisting with providing others with the most basic of needs. Through this project designed by our partners at Blood:Water Mission, participants will be helping provide safe drinking water to needy communities across the world. For two weeks, Active:Water volunteers will be sharing with their church, civic group, or other fellowship of friends, about the impact a simple fresh water well can have on a community where water shortages have brought poverty, disease, and death. They will raise funds to assist in project areas through encouraging their friends and family into denying themselves for the sake of others.
The Challenge:
Make tap water your only beverage for two weeks.
Keep a running tally of the money you didn't spend on other beverages as those opportunities to sacrifice occur.
Place the money which would have gone toward other beverages in the designated cup.
Return your cup containing your savings to your church (or other group) on collection day so they can mail in their total contributions to Active:Water.
To get involved, contact us at volunteer@activewater.org
