Warriors 4 Change: Central Falls High School Participatory Budgeting

Our project will fund four new water fountains with filtered water. These water fountains will be placed in high-traffic areas, like the cafeteria and near the library, so that students can have access to clean drinking water. This project will also purchase water bottles for students, which will be given to them in the first few weeks of school to be used with the new filtered fountains.

The problem we are trying to address is that there are very few places with drinking water available in CFHS. We know it’s a problem because we only have two water fountains with filters, and Central Falls has a problem with clean and healthy drinking water. Our proposed solution is to install four new bubblers throughout the school in areas that will benefit the most students. As part of our solution, we want to install a water fountain in the cafeteria, outside of the cafeteria, near the library on the second floor, and by the main office. The people who would benefit are all students who attend CFHS and need a drink that is not juice or milk from the cafeteria or cafe.
