My charity water project

For a few days now, Anthony and I have been working on a project to gather money to get clean water for a community in Africa. We chose 3 places where people go to almost daily and put posters with links to our charity water account and a box for donations. It only takes $30 to get enough money to buy clean water for a community. We hope to get enough for 2 or 3 communities. This is a small thing we can do to help people with unclean water. If you want to learn more you can go to Our charity water account.

Why writing is important.

It forces you to think. When you to think about the topic you are writing on. If you have been writing about water for the past few weeks like I have, you will find yourself thinking about the water situation throughout the day.
You take on a different viewpoint. While I have been writing about water, I have been looking at it from the people who live hear, who are trying to help, and I have heard from the bottled water companies. We see the problem or topic from multiple viewpoints.
You will be better at communicating verbally. When you write papers and blogs, you have practice in a way of talking to people. Even though you aren't actually there talking to them, you get practice taking to people that you may not even know.

Writing a letter

My assignment today was to write a letter to a celebrity who did a bottled water comercial. It is kind of strange writing a letter to a stranger ( although my blog is the same thing ). I had to write the celebrity and ask them why they promote bottled water. So i shared some facts ( the letter is on the previous post ). The only reason I was able to write this letter is because I knew that there was a possibility that it could make a difference.

Dear Jennifer,
I am a student at Atlanta Adventist Academy and my teacher wants me to write a celebrity who did a bottled water commercial and to try and understand why you promote bottled water over tap. We have watched many videos about how bottle water companies are practically using tap water and adding some extra flavor to it and saying it came from fresh from the mountain springs. From what we saw, the companies are taking people's water and selling it back to them in bottled water. If you have some time, I would like to hear what you have to say about this.
Thank you for your time. Sincerely,

John Boone
