If you don't know about the water crisis in Flint, you should know. Just imagine doing all of your everyday things, like brushing your teeth, washing your face, taking a shower, and so much more that we take for granted. Now being limited to a case of water to complete all that. This problem has been going on for over a year now and thanks to the people listening, the world opened up their ears and their heart to contribute with the families in Flint, Michighan.
This past weekend Radio One Saint Louis partnered up with Project Compassion NFP, The Korey Johnson Foundation, and Beyond Limits Production to make an
everlasting memory. As they reached out to the community to collect a
goal of one thousand cases of water.

Instead of reaching their goal, they exceed it, by collecting seven thousand cases of water. Radio One Saint Louis and friends came together to make sure that the families of Flint, Michigan know they aren't alone.
To be on site it brought a feeling that made you see that there are humans in this wild world. It also made you feel like no matter had bad you think you have it, somewhere someone is going through it worse. As a community to see people not thinking about themselves was refreshing and yes there have been several water drives for Flint, but is it ever really enough?
Faith in the stars. I'm gon' do what I want, cause this life's what I'm given. Gotta keep my faith in the dark clouds.-Drake (Faith ft. K-OS)
