Turn On The Tap
Imagine not being able to access clean drinking water for one day. What impact would that make on your life? It would be PROFOUND. Now imagine that this is your entire life.
Turn On The Tap is all about helping families in this situation. They have no access to clean drinking water and it they are suffering because of it.
We can help.
Some details of the Turn On The Tap project are still being worked on. Please check this blog for updates
Here is what we know
- The date of the event is Saturday April 9th
- Students can be part of this project if they raise $50
- Each Student is challenged to raise $100
- For $100 we can buy one whole clean water filter for families in the world (like in Haiti) who desperately need clean drinking water.
- This project is a collection of youth groups in the region working together to raise $10,000
- The project is in collaboration with Samaritans Purse. They are the ones who distribute the filters.
- We are going to do a walk from IGC in Downtown Kitchener, walk along King Street to Waterloo Town Square, pick up water jugs in teams, and walk back to IGC for our celebration of all that God has done through this project.
- Students will be given Turn On the Tap t-shirts to wear for the walk and promote awareness about the program
- There are several needs we have: People to help count the finances as they come in on the Saturday, Event Coordinators on the day, people to supply water for students as needed, etc, etc. Contact Ian for more details
