Drink Water Week, May 2-8: Take Care of Our Water, Get Free Shipping!

May 3rd, 2010

 Drink Water Week may be a little unknown, but it’s aim is big. The purpose of this special week is  to bring awareness to the importance of keeping our drinking water supply clean and accessible and to not take it for granted. According to the American Water Works, “a safe, reliable water supply is critical to the success of any community. It creates jobs, attracts industry and investment and provides for the health and welfare of citizens in ways ranging from disease prevention to fire prevention.” They have been promoting Drink Water Week for over 30 years as a way to bring together water professionals and the communities they serve to recognize the vital role that water plays in our lives.  

Maybe there will be some water-related activities in your area to celebrate this week. Or maybe your child will do something fun and educational in school this week. Spread the word about taking care of our water supply.  If you do something cool to celebrate, enter the video contest at  http://www.awwa.org/ . I believe Drink Water Week will grow over the years. Look at Earth Day; it’s big business now, but wasn’t always.

This week only! Enjoy  free shipping on all Reduce water bottles. Use code DRINK at check out through May 8. Stock up on water bottles to fill with safe, drinkable tap water. Enjoy!
