The University’s Rotaract Club along with the Coastal Conservation Club will be assisting Rotaract EAST with a water filter distribution on the St. Thomas Campus from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. on Oct. 8.
The distribution will take place in the UVI Bookstore Parking Lot.
These water filters connect to faucets and remove up to 99.99% of viruses and other harmful contaminants in drinking water. This event is timely as we are in hurricane season but is also geared towards reducing plastic waste created by single-use 16oz water bottles.
For more information, contact Howard Forbes, Jr. at (340) 693-1672.
