Hosted by the Water Environment Federation (WEF) and the International Water Association (IWA)

World Water Monitoring Day™ (WWMD) is an international education and outreach program that builds public awareness and involvement in protecting water resources around the world by engaging citizens to help monitor local water bodies. Hosted by the Water Environment Federation (WEF) and the International Water Association (IWA), WWMD is a fun and engaging way to educate students about our water resources and the role they play as environmental stewards. Monitoring kits test four basic parameters of water quality: pH, temperature, turbidity, and dissolved oxygen.  This year, RMSWFP will have a station where the students (5th graders) will come to our station to learn about the Water and Sanitation Crisis.  We need volunteers to help create an activity for our station and to man the station on the day of the event.  If you’re interested in participating in this event please contact John Albert at jalbert@waterrf.org
