is a new project sponsored by the Children's Water Festival to promote recycling and at the same time help communities in other countries obtain a safe drinking water supply.  Students who attend the annual Children's Water Festival learn the importance of "Reduce, Reuse and Recycle" to keep our communities clean and help protect the water resource. 

 

is a simple recycling program.   Students are encouraged to bring their aluminum cans to their school and leave them in the designated CW Frog container.  A representative from the Children's Water Festival will collect the cans. All monies received from recycling will go towards the purchase of water well equipment in Zimbabwe.  Students will be able to watch the progress of the collection on the Festival's website.

Protecting our local water supply will ensure a safe resource for years to come. Helping children in another country will bring them fresh, clean water today!
