About the Film
More than 2.1 billion people do not have access to safe drinking water. Earth is covered with water, but only 3 percent is fresh water, and only 0.3 percent of that fresh water is available to drink. A little-known fact about the Great Lakes region is that it is water-rich, holding 20 percent of the Earth’s fresh surface water. This story is about one woman from Cleveland who is determined to share the water wealth of the Great Lakes with people in need. While walking miles each day to haul dirty water in Uganda, she learned about the plight of children at a rural orphan school and committed to making a difference. Turning passion into action over two years, she returns to fulfill her promise to bring the students life through access to safe water.

This event is part of Water Has Influence, a month-long celebration of our most precious resource.
