Clean Drinking WATER - Shouldn't everyone have it?

What would you do if you didn't have access to CLEAN drinking water?

What would you do if your child was at risk of dying because of the water they drank?

What if your child died because they simply didn't have any?


Water Warriors


How blessed we are to have clean water!

Water that will not make us sick.
Water that doesn't require a 5 mile walk to the closest well, and then carrying it back in a bucket to your family. Forget about having water to shower with, or flush down a toilet.

We are talking simply about having a clean drink of water.

Can you imagine?

Me neither!

This week however, lets try!

The Bargain Babe, over at ZUCHINI SUMMER is challenging us this week to be a Water Warrior.

This week you are being challenged to make a very simple sacrifice.

Instead of grabbing your normal soda, coffee, sweet tea, or any other drink you enjoy, STOP!

STOP, and grab a glass of TAP WATER, --- NOT BOTTLED --- NOT PAYED FOR WATER!

Simply replace WHATEVER you would drink and PAY for this week, with TAP WATER!

Then donate the money you saved to your favorite charity, that focuses on helping to provide clean water to those in need.

Please go read her full article WATER - Make a Difference and get all the details, and join me in taking this challenge! Please tell your friends, and lets all try and make a difference!

I am starting Monday MARCH 12  and will do the challenge for ONE WEEK!

    I am so behind, I am only JUST now getting the chance to read this post! What a beautiful idea!! I hope that many people will take this challenge!! The funny thing for me though, is I ONLY drink water. And only once a week is it bottle, because my nephew always brings me one to church because I sing on the worship team. He is a sweetie! ♥

    Anyways.. hope youre doing well with the challenge!! Water is so yummy! I hope you enjoy it and dont miss the other drinks too much!! :)

In my spare time I enjoy cooking, and baking. In fact my mother and I have been making cakes for over 30 years. I also love gardening, traveling, and all things crafty. I struggle daily to keep my like organized, along with my never ending battle to keep the house clean. I adore my three kids MOST of the time, and can usually be found doing the mom thing from morning till night. I try to catch a few mommy moments, but those are hard to find in this wonderful life of mine. I am blessed and happy, and am thrilled you stopped by today :)
