FLINT, Mich. – Flint Mayor Karen Weaver has announced the donation of bottle water from Nestle Waters.
The donations will be distributed to the city’s three Community Help Centers.
That water will then be given to city residents.
Weaver thanked the company for its generous donation.
We have been in conversation with representatives at Nestle Waters and they have generously agreed to provide the three Help Centers in Flint with bottled water for the next several months.
I also want to thank everyone who had a hand in helping to make this a reality, Senator Jim Ananich and Jamie Gaskin and his team at the United Way of Genesee County.
Flint has been seeking alternative sources of bottled water since the state shut down its water distribution sites known as PODS in April.
Donations of bottled water have since come in from various donors.
