Get Thirsty

Yo! A new voice is joining forces with YBTC… I’m Kimi and have been given the privilege to “guest” blog for this great cause. I met up with YBTC over a year ago and soon learned how thirsty I was to join the movement towards getting clean water to the world!

This word “thirsty” has gotten me thinking lately. The dictionary defines it as thus: (adj.) “feeling or having thirst, needing moisture; parched, eagerly desirous.”

Now I don’t know about you, but one thing I find lacking in today’s world is thirsty people, but I don’t mean of the literal kind. There are people all over the globe “in need” of proper sanitary water conditions [that is what YBTC is about], and this need is a constant presence that we are fighting hard to improve and change… Hence, I am speaking more of the “eagerly desirous” types in the end of the above definition.

We are accustomed to being satiated with everything that we need and want and more that we too often lose our desire to taste- to taste the depth and intensity and urgency of many, many situations around us. And that is what YBTC is about, creating a global thirst for clean water for all people.

We are too blessed in America and often forget the global crisis of sanitary water conditions in other parts of the world, but the inability to thirst ends here. We encourage you to become aware, educate yourselves on this global need, and join forces with us to provide clean water around the world. Let us GET THIRSTY together for change. For action. For YBTC and clean water.
