In yet another crisis affecting mostly black communities, Benton Harbor residents may not have safe drinking water for another year and a half.Much like the Flint, Michigan water crisis, Benton Harbor is dealing with high levels of lead in their drinking water. And, much like Flint residents, the people of Benton Harbor are asking why they’re just finding out about the very unsafe water years after local authorities became aware of the problem. While the Governor has call for all hands in to help with the crisis, we’re doing our part to serve our community.In partnership with First Community AME Church–Grand Rapids, MI, we’re collecting bottled water for Benton Harbor.
