Blood+Water
40 Days of Water
We don’t think about it – really. On the way to work, we swing by our favorite coffee shop to grab that jolt to get us started. After a workout, we slurp a blended fruit smoothie to sustain us. In the evening, we get together with friends over beverages to celebrate the end of another day.
What if we didn’t have those choices? What if water was the only option to sustain us? And what if we had to walk miles to get water – only to have a water source that is contaminated and full of disease?
Choose to make water your only beverage for 40 Days between February 17 – April 3 to help Blood:Water Mission provide clean water for people in Africa who don’t have a choice.
By giving up what you’d normally drink in exchange for the water from your tap you can save that money to help build clean water projects for communities in Uganda. You can stay updated on the work you are enabling by reading about the Uganda project updates.
So ditch the morning coffee and o.j., leave out the lunchtime soda, and cancel the evening beverage. You won’t need an ark for this 40 Days of Water, but you will need a little self-discipline and maybe a few friends to join you. But we know you can do it, because you know who you’re doing it for. Make the choice.
