March 22-28 is World Water Week.  Locally the TapDC project is looking to raise money to support UNICEF’s efforts to bring clean and accessible water to millions of children around the world.  The concept is simple: restaurants would ask their patrons to donate $1 or more for the tap water they usually enjoy for free and the funds directly support UNICEF’s clean water project.  For every dollar raised, a child will have clean drinking water for 40 days.

There are several activities around this year’s project including the “Turn a Glass of Water into Something Beautiful” art submission.  The image to the left is Roque‘s (BF) submission; it has been selected to appear in the PEPCO’s Edison Place Gallery during World Water Week.

Make a reservation online through OpenTable or view the list of participating restaurants at TapProject.org.  Several other ways to donate are also listed on the site.
