MHS seeking bottled water for Flint
February 03, 2016

     To help out the people of Flint throughout their water crisis, the Monroe High School Student Council has kicked off its Flint Water Drive at MHS.  

     “The people of Flint will be without water for quite some time, so we are approaching the people of our community to donate water,” said MHS Student Council Member Harrison Carter who is heading the drive up with classmate Keegan Drager.  “We’re sure that the students and staff at Monroe High School will bring a good amount of water.  But we want to broaden the amount of people able to donate to the drive, rather than only sticking to our fellow students.  The more the merrier, right?”

     Water will be accepted at Monroe High School during the regular school day the rest of this week and through next week, and delivered to Flint the week of February 15.  Please note that Monroe High School will be closed on Friday, February 12, so no donations can be accepted that day.  Persons donating water can visit campus where they will be directed to Monroe High School’s administrative offices to drop the water off. 

     The Flint Water Drive at MHS will accept commercially packed water, but no loose bottles, please.  Commercially sealed containers of water one gallon or larger will be accepted, too, but all containers must have an expiration date of at least six months in advance. 

     Canned water, carbonated water, flavored water, containers with open or broken seals and water that is past or below six months from expiration will not be accepted.





Success!
