I’m tapped out!!! Water that is… I’m on day 7 of
drinking Tap water! I’m doing the Blood Water Mission! What?!? you may be
asking, is a “Blood Water Mission” aka 40 DAYS OF WATER... Its 40 days of drinking water (which is
SUPER easy for me because that is all I drink) BUT I will not purchase and or
drink any bottled water…The Catch, I’m keeping track of all the money I would
have spent on bottled/filtered water and helping
to build clean water projects for communities in Uganda!! So easy, at the end
of the week I tally up what I would have spent on bottled water and send a
check to Blood Water Mission. **Confession: I’m so bad with “mailing” things I
think next week I will just pay online. SIMPLE! So for those of you that are
trying to break a soda or coffee habit this may be right up your ally!! I’ll
add the rules below and it’s not too late to join! With my busy/crazy and super
hectic schedule this was SO easy to fit into my everyday life! One little
change and I’m making a difference in other people’s lives, Groovy! I hope you
all will jump on board!!

Give
Up Beverages
To be clear: we’re not asking you to
fast for Forty days. We’re just asking you to ditch the morning coffee and
o.j., leave out the lunchtime soda, and cancel the evening beverage in lieu of
clean water from the tap. By sacrificing your daily routine, you will make a
difference in the daily routine of a person in Africa.
It’s a big commitment to not drink
anything but water for Forty days. But from February 13th to March 30th, that’s
exactly what we’re asking you to do. It’s a lot easier if you do it with other
people like your friends or family. Remember, Sundays are feast days! You get
to enjoy your favorite beverages one day out of the week, which will remind you
just how much you miss them the other 6 days.
Be sure to visit the webstore to
order a new Blood:Water bottle to
remind you to head to the tap!
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!
