The Sports 4 Water initiative
How would you like an opportunity to build your network with Nottingham alumni and other business contacts while making a difference to help kids gets clean water?
The Sports 4 Water Initiative is a monthly 5 A side Football and Dodgeball tournament held in Central London where pro-active individuals can meet and build their networks through the powerful medium of sport and all profits help kids with clean water.
London Alumni Co-ordinator Jatinder Singh (Industrial Economics 2000) who is a part of the initiative explains the Sports 4 Water ethos: "The tournaments are not just a chance to network, get a bit of exercise and have a lot of fun but it's also a great way of bringing people together to create opportunities for everyone while making a difference.
"As we know from our Uni day’s the connections that get formed on the field, the pitch, the court and then the bar can open up incredible opportunities. They open up conversations, the freedom to joke around with each other, the chance to speak to people with whom you wouldn’t ordinarily."
Helping those in most need
Each and every day around 4,500 children lose their lives either because of a lack of clean drinking water or due to water-related illnesses, that's one child every 20 seconds. Through Sports 4 Water we can be a significant catalyst and change agent working as part of the Clean Water Campaign.
