Imagine mothers mixing formula with water that doubles as a restroom, bath, and sink for both people and animals.
The Regent Undergraduate Council (RUC) has partnered with Lifesaver USA to construct a silent prayer walk for the people of Haiti. Participants will donate $5 to carry (or not) a bucket of water as a symbolic identification with the Haitians who travel miles to get "fresh" water. The funds will go to the purchase of Jerry Cans, an eco-friendly filtration system that turns puddle water into 100% pure drinking/usable water. Participants will be able to pause and read facts staked around the quad to better understand the importance of this cause. Each Jerry can is $200 and RUC will match donations up to $500. Participants are not required to come for the whole hour, but can walk as fast/slow as they like.
