Water for South Sudan

5th grade enrichment students recently finished the book A Long Walk to Water by Linda Sue Park.  It is based on the incredible true story of Salva Dut, one of the "Lost Boys" of Sudan.  Today, Salva leads a non-profit organization that raises money to build wells for the people of South Sudan so that they will not have to drink contaminated water.  Many of the students in our class have been inspired by Salva's story and want to help raise money for this worthy cause.  To learn more about this organization and how to help, visit http://www.waterforsouthsudan.org/.
