Swim-A-Thon will be at Hidden Hollow Swim Club July 11th from 10 am-noon. Members of Hidden Hollow, Knowlton Swim Club, Rocky Run YMCA, Congregation Ohev Shalom and local school districts are welcome to participate. Spencer has organized this event as a Bar Mitzvah project. Clean water saves lives. Water is life. When water is unsafe and sanitation non-existent, water can kill. Globally, waterborne illnesses are a leading cause of death for children under five, killing 1,000 children every day. UNICEF works in more than 100 countries to improve access to safe water and sanitation facilities. Whether by restoring access to clean water after a disaster or promoting safe hygiene practices in schools and communities, UNICEF is on the ground helping children in need. Since 1990, thanks to the work of UNICEF and its partners, more than 2.1 billion people have gained access to clean drinking water.
