The Washtenaw Water Drive Coalition has obtained special pricing through a partnership with the United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW) Union and Meijer, Inc. to purchase and transport bottled water at approximately 25% of the retail price. The coalition is hoping to raise enough funding to send 100,000 bottles of water to Flint residents.
A Go Fund Me page has been created to collect donations. 100% of the proceeds go directly to purchasing water through this special pricing arrangement: https://www.gofundme.com/tqk68e24
If citizens would like to purchase bottled water on their own, donations can be dropped off at the following participating locations on Monday, 1/25 from 3-5 PM.
