The Great Gallon Challenge

The Gallon Challenge starts May 2nd!

Water Conservation Toolkit

The. Gallon Challenge is a PE activity where our goal is to educate our students and community about how hard it is to get water in developing countries. Students will be asked to carry a gallon of water around our field to get the feel of the hard work it takes to access water in underprivileged homes and countries. We need to save fresh water because only 0.5% of Earth’s water is available for human use!
