Sample Letter to Mayor and School Board

Protect Our Water Fountains

Here is a sample email for your city official:

Dear city official:

As a resident of {Community} I am writing to encourage you to Think Outside the Bottle. I am concerned that water fountains are quickly disappearing from our city parks and schools, only to be replaced by bottled water vending machines.

We owe it to our children to provide them water without a price tag attached. There are some things, like our most essential resource, that should not be for sale.

Please join the growing number of communities across the country and take the City Think Outside the Bottle Pledge: /sites/default/files/TOTB_mayorpledge.pdf

Sincerely,

{Your name}
