Quench Your Thirst.


Last night I saw Joel and Benji Madden talking about the Tap Project on Larry King Live and I thought it was such a fantastic idea. This charity project is backed by UNICEF and basically encourages restaurant patrons to donate $1 for the tap water you usually receive for free with your meal. This charity is completely relevant this week as March 22-28 is National Water Week. For every dollar raised, a child will have clean drinking water for 40 days. That is huge considering that nearly 900 million people worldwide lack access to safe drinking water. So check out the site here and find a restaurant near you that is participating. Seriously... everyone get off your asses, forgo plunking down your daily $7 at Starbucks for a Grande Skinny Caramel Macchiato and help humanity for God's sake.
