The second day of the City of Birmingham Water Drive is in the books, and our community continues to show up in a big way.
A special thank you to 45th Street Baptist Church volunteering their time and making the largest donation of the day.
We're also grateful to the Birmingham Public Library team, whose volunteers came from branches across the city to lend their support. Thank you for helping make this effort possible.
If you haven't had a chance to donate yet, today is your opportunity to help us reach our goal. Come see us at the Boutwell from 7:30 am - 4 pm.
