The Luxury of Water
Water is essential. Even our bodies are mostly water. Without water, we cease to exist. You and I are lucky. We’ve been born in a place where clean water is available everywhere. It’s all around us. It’s not expensive. We have so much of it that we water our lawns with it. We wash our cars with it. We even use it to transport our disposed waste. With clean water in such abundance, it is hard to imagine our lives without it.
Unfortunately, millions of people around the globe do not have access to clean water. Many people have to walk for miles to get water. More often than not, the water they get is dirty. 1,700,000 people die each year from dirty water – more than all forms of violence combined.
At the Gary Lipman Initiative, our mission is to provide local access to clean water. We are raising money to support clean water initiatives in villages that need access to clean water. The benefits begin immediately. Lower infant mortality. Better health. Less time spent travelling to get water. More time for school. It is amazing to see what happens to a village that gets access to clean water.
We hope that you will join us as we partner with World Hope International on Clean Water Initiatives in Southwestern Africa. By participating in one of our events, volunteering or making a donation, you are helping us provide the luxury of water to those who need it the most.
We’ve got an easy way for you to help us provide clean water
On September 27, the Gary Lipman Golf Scramble will tee off at the Heritage Golf Ranch for a fun filled round of golf. Breakfast before and lunch after the round are included for all players.
We’re using a shotgun start and all teams will be using our “Handicap by String” format. All our players are automatically entered in 9 contests All Player Contests to add more excitement to the round.
To help get a leg up on the competition, each player may purchase a Super Ticket that includes several “move up” advantages and the Air Cannon Golf Ball Launcher. Each player can also purchase individual mulligans or a bundle of 4. Super Ticket Items & Mulligans
As in past years, the proceeds from the day will be used to support clean water initiatives to villages in Southwest Africa through our partnership with World Hope International. Additionally, we have an anonymous donor who will match our donation. This means that every dollar you donate becomes $2.
To help you picture our venue, check out The Holes of Heritage Ranch.
I hope that you will join me in this effort.
