Those awful things are survivable, because we are as INDESTRUCTIBLE as we believe OURSELVES to be.

Water is a necessary part of life yet, 1 in 3 individuals in the world (2.2 Billion people) lack access to safe drinking water [1]. According to the EPA, each American uses 82 gallons of water per day [2]. We can help preserve the water we still have by turning off the water while we brush our teeth, do dishes and not watering our lawn every day of the week. Let’s make sure everyone has water for years to come.

More than 68,800 Palestinians have been killed, and 170,664 injured, since the start of hostilities on 7 October 2023 following the Hamas-led attacks on Israel. The actual death toll is likely to be higher as the figure does not account for persons buried under rubble [1]. No one deserves to be killed for existing and this geneocide does not need to continue.

“The war, which erupted in April 2023, has devastated communities, displaced millions and exacerbated an already dire humanitarian crisis.[1]” Often times we as a society are so caught up in our own day to day lives that we forget to look out into the world. The war in Sudan has been raging for over 3 years and has displaced over 12 million people.
