5 days in May - Drink water to give water -  BLOGGER CAMPAIGN

The bloggers are backing a great new social campaign and word is spreading fast on the social networks about Five Days In May.

A group of bloggers in the US is asking readers to go on a five day beverage fast this May.  Drink only water and donate what you save to Water Mission International.  They serve water needs for people in developing countries and disaster areas.

“5 Days in May has the potential to provide millions with clean water for life,” said Shawn Wood, founder of the 5 Days in May campaign. “But the picture I cannot get out my mind is that one 3 year old little girl who will not be drinking out of a ditch on May 6th” Wood continued.

On average, 30 cans of soda equal $15.00, 3 trips to a commercial coffee shop equal $10.00 and five fountain drinks equal $8.75, totaling $43.75 spent on beverages by the average American in only one week.

According to Water Mission International, that same dollar amount of $43.75 could give 5 people clean drinking water for the rest of their lives.
