Do you want to have access to fresh, purified water at school? Parents at Friends of Reed are encouraging everyone to donate online to raise $20,000 to install water purifiers all around the campus! This movement is really great because people don’t have to waste too many individual plastic bottles, and you can refill your bottles with filtered drinking water. This is good for the environment because together, we can minimize the plastic waste at Walter Reed Middle School. Twenty thousand dollars might seem like a lot of money but if everyone in the school community contributes, there will be a lot of clean drinking water to go around. On Tuesday, February 12, 2019 from 1:32pm-3:30pm, a walking fundraiser will take place on the field, and people can show that they really want the water dispensers by walking laps. More information can be found on the school website at reedms.com.
