Hello Everyone!!!
November 23, 2016 marks the offical launch of #4Days4Flint, the National Clean Water Collective’s (NCWC) nationwide campaign to solve the Flint Water Crisis!
Flint, Michigan has been without clean water for over two years., and with four days of focus throughout the coming months, the National Clean Water Collective aims to take the first major steps in a comprehensive plan to provide clean drinking water to thousands of Flint residents-- but, we need your helphelp!
Our first event, Day of Online Action, is about a global community coming together and showing that if every individual chips in just a little, we can raise the standards of living for those in need. Donate what you can, even if it is only $1. Spread the campaign on social media with the hashtag #4Days4Flint on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. Share around the exclusive content from the hip-hop portion of our campaign, #4Bars4Flint, or our exclusive comedy content under the hashtag #Laugh4Flint. Voice your support, make your own videos, set statuses, like, share, tweet about it. Tell everyone you know that the citizens in Flint do not have clean water, and tell them they have the power to change that.
Where will the money go?
Flint residents need clean water today! The most cost-effective and immediate way to provide clean water for Flint is through advanced countertop water filtration technology. The National Clean Water Collective is teaming up with a lead company in advanced filtration technology, Watercura, to provide countertop filters powerful enough filter out Flint’s massive lead concentration. WaterCura has graciously agreed to match 5% of the donations.
Who Are We?

They conducted their third successful water drop on Columbus Day, and across three water drops they have mobilized hundreds of activists in over twenty states. The National Clean Water Collective’s project “Clean Water 4 Flint” has collected and distributed over $100,000 worth of supplies to the community with the help of sponsors like FILA, Under Armour, US Polo Association, Watercura, The National Council of Women, The Budgetnista, ThatSuitsYou, Piece of the Rock Foundation and The #BeYou Campaign.
