Wilson Chapman editorRyan Reynolds and Blake Lively have announced they’ve donated $500,000 donation to Water First Education & Training.Established in 2009 as Tin Roof Global, Water First is a Canada-based charity that focuses on providing Indigenous communities with sustainable access to safe, clean water.
The non-profit was created in response to the disparities to clean water access in Canada. Across the country, 15% of First Nation communities are under a drinking water advisory.“Access to clean drinking water is a basic human right,” Reynolds, who was born and raised in Canada, said in a statement on Thursday. “Canada is home to over 20% of the planet’s freshwater — an abundance that’s envied around the world.
There’s absolutely no reason Indigenous communities should not have access to safe, clean water. All the individuals involved, whether they are operating water systems or monitoring their local water bodies, are critical.
We appreciate Water First’s focus on supporting young, Indigenous adults to become certified water operators and environmental technicians.
