Fundraiser for World Water Day
Written by Seojin David Lee
The majority of us reading this article most likely enjoy the privilege of having access to drinkable water at any moment. Although it may seem normal for us to possess what we believe is a fundamental right to any human being in the 21st century, the harsh reality is that a significant portion of the population worldwide is deprived of the ability to simply drink clean water. This is especially true for the people in the Daknong and Ninh Thuan provinces in Vietnam.
In light of the annually celebrated World Water Day, the Ecosave club, in collaboration with OpenHands, held a fundraiser on March 20th of 2022 and collected around 600,000 won for the installation of water filtration kits in the Vietnamese provinces by selling colorful Ecosave bracelets and other goods. These water filtration kits are specially designed by OpenHands and go by the name of “WaterKit.” Through our fundraiser, we were able to raise enough money to install around 300 WaterKits and plan the installation to take place in the near future.
We deeply appreciate the kind hearts who participated in our fundraiser!
