![]() About the Fundraiser: Prior to the event, the students and youth are asking their family and friends for pledges in the amount of a nickel, dime, or quarter per pound of garbage we collect during the clean up. The proceeds from the fundraiser will benefit two important causes this year! Fifty percent of the funds will go to support the OSLC Water Campaign and the other fifty percent will fund community projects for students to participate in during the 2012-2013 school year. We plan to keep helping... one project at a time! About the OSLC Water Campaign: This year the Clean Up is proud to team up with OSLC's Mission and Outreach committee to raise awareness and funds for the ELCA World Hunger Water Project! The ELCA Water Project helps provide water solutions for people around the globe that do not have access to safe and sufficient water.
