Water Drive for Martin County

A water drive is being held for the citizens of Martin County. The county is currently suffering a water shortage and water contamination, leaving many residents without clean water to drink, cook, clean, bathe or brush their teeth. Organizers are asking for donations in the form of bottled water, jugs of water, or monetary donations to purchase water for the citizens of Martin County. Donations can be dropped off at the Big Sandy Community and Technical College’s Postsecondary Building in Prestonsburg, or at the AppalRed Legal Aid office at 120 N. Front St in Prestonsburg. To have a donation picked up, contact Nick Bailey at 606-424-2012.
