SAVE THE RAIN

BY ANAHI RUIZ & GABY GAONA

WHAT IS SAVE THE RAIN? • SAVE THE RAIN IS A NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION THAT HELPS BRING CLEAN WATER TO COMMUNITIES THAT DON’T HAVE ACCESS TO CLEAN DRINKING WATER.

• WITH A MERE $15, YOU CAN HELP FAMILIES IN AFRICA RECEIVE THE GIFT OF CLEAN DRINKING WATER FOR A LIFETIME. • ALL FUNDS RAISED GO TO THE COMMUNITIES…NOT TO ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS

• THEY USE LOCAL MATERIALS TO BUILD RAIN CATCHMENT SYSTEMS WITH THE HELP OF THEIR LOCAL COMMUNITY MEMBERS • IT IS ALSO OUR CLUB’S COMPETITIVE SERVICE PROJECT FOR THE 2017-18 KEY CLUB YEAR!!!!!

GOALS FOR THE PROJECT • TO FUNDRAISE $11,000 • WE ARE GOING TO SEE IF WE CAN GET CORPORATE SPONSORSHIP FROM PLACES LIKE LUSH AND A NUMBER OF OTHER CORPORATIONS. • TO GET OTHER CLUBS INVOLVED SUCH AS: KIWANIS, BUILDERS CLUB, ROTARY, AND INTERACT CLUB. (MAYBE EVEN LIONS CLUB!)

WHAT WE HAVE PLANNED SO FAR… • AT OUR FIRST COMMITTEE MEETING WE SET UP 3 SUB-COMMITTEES • FUNDRAISING AT SCHOOL ON ALMOST A DAILY BASIS • AFTER SCHOOL SNACKS

• CORPORATE SPONSORSHIPS • WORKING ON “LUSH” AND LOCAL BUSINESSES CONNECTED TO LARGE CORPORATIONS

• MAJOR EVENTS COMMITTEE • PLANNING A MOVIE NIGHT AT THE LOCAL THEATER AND MUCH MORE!
