There are lots of ways we can help make sure people have safe water, especially if we work together. There are 25 kids doing God's Wet, Wild, Wonderful World. If each gives $2, that's $50. What could we buy with $50? Share your opinion in the Gallery--tell us what you think we should spend $50 on and why! An adult can help you DONATE HERE. Choose the "Presbyterian Giving Catalog: Water Gifts" option. We will let you know how we do!

Take the virtual tour with this video! For more info and for ways you can help protect our watersheds, visit Salem's Clean Streams, Clear Choices Initiative with an adult. Or enjoy this activity book (not included in your kit).
