GIVE:BACK 2007 
CHILDREN SHOULD WEAR BACKPACKS NOT BUCKETS
Over 35 backpacks were donated through the campaign and these were sent to kids in Honduras  that Water 1st helps (plus the packs were filled with school supplies from Seattle area schools!).  Funds were also raised to support Water 1st and to enable Bands Without Borders to move forward. Thank you!
