HELP FOR MISSISSIPPI'S WATER CRISIS

09/06/2022 07:26 P.M. PT
The immediate cause of the current water shortage are the floods that began to overwhelm the Pearl River last week. These floods caused issues at local water-treatment plants, essentially shutting them down. After several days without water, the National Guard was deployed last week and lines for water at emergency distribution centers formed around the capital city. There are several things that went wrong here, but as this crisis effects our people, let's join efforts to help. Below, find a list of organizations currently taking donations to help those in Jackson stay safe and healthy during this crisis.  Also, i
n efforts to combat the ongoing water crisis and eliminate drought, Black inventor, Moses West, founder of Atmospheric Water Generator Contracting LLC, has made it his personal mission to bring clean, affordable drinking water to those in need.  In 2015, West invented an atmospheric water generator (AWG), a machine that turns air into clean drinking water.  To support, donate at https://moseswestfoundation.org/

Choose your favorite online store from the list below or one that you use that's not listed, to purchase and ship water to the locations given.  Each location has been vetted.  Listings that are for residential homes are also providing resources to neighbors.  -Thank you, Dr. LaTatia Stroud, Founder.
