Flint’s water has lead levels measuring up to 397 parts per billion, more than 26 times the federal government’s ‘action’ threshold. Tests of the water have also revealed the presence of E. coli and trihalomethane, a carcinogen.
The problem stems from Michigan’s 2014 decision to switch the source of Flint’s water supply from Lake Huron to the Flint River in order to cut costs. The river’s waters are 19 times more corrosive than Lake Huron’s.
Let's join together to provide relief supplies to Flint and help fund a sustainable clean water source. Show your support by dropping a token!
