Wolf Pack Hydration
Donation protected
We are trying to retro fit our current drinking fountains with water bottle fillers, which we currently don't have.
We currently have 700+ students of which 70% are low income that we need to keep hydrated daily.
Our research shows that:
· 75% of the body is made up of water.
· 92% of blood is made of water.
· Water carries nutrients and oxygen to all the cells in your body.
· Water helps turn food into energy.
· Water regulates your body temperature.
· You have a 10% decrease in your mental performance when you feel thirsty.
· If you are dehydrated, you are more likely to have trouble concentrating.
· If you are well hydrated, exercise feels easier and more enjoyable.
It is recommended that they drink at least 8 ounces every hour to stay hydrated. It is very disruptive that they leave the class to get a drink of water or don't get a drink at all.
We would like to get this project completed as soon as possible to alleviate this health issue with our school. By making water readily available to students in quantities that can sustain hydration and make it also very affordable we will be able to sustain significant improvements to our students mentation, ability to perform better in the classroom and in daily activities.
In conjunction with this money any water bottle donations to be used by the students would be greatly appreciated.
