Water for Life
The United Nations has declared the 10-year period from 2005 to 2015 the International Decade for Action on Water. The "Water for Life" decade starts on World Water Day, Tuesday, March 22.
Water for People has a vision of a world where all people have access to safe drinking water and adequate sanitation, a world where no child suffers or dies from a water-related disease. Join in the cause at a happy hour fundraiser on Tuesday, March 22, from 5 to 9 p.m., at the Eleventh Street Lounge (1041 N. Highland St., Arlington; one block from the Clarendon Metro). The cover charge is $5. For more information, e-mail.
DC Metro Action is published by Michael Schlesinger, a 32-year veteran of electoral and issue organizing who is committed to social justice and to increasing participation in the political process.
