La Sierra University’s Students in Free Enterprise (SIFE) team received its first shipment of SIFE Water bottles Friday, May 5, kicking off a project in the works since last school year. SIFE Water will be sold at Walgreens, Kaiser-Permanente, and other Riverside area establishments, as well as La Sierra University’s cafeteria and the Eagle’s Nest.
“The proceeds from each million bottles sold will go to fund a different SIFE project,” says La Sierra University finance senior Warren Sturt, project director for SIFE Water. Profits from the first million bottles will go to help establish a high school at the SIFE Learning Village in Ethiopia.
The first truckload of SIFE Water contained 114,912 bottles, and is only the first of three truckloads to be delivered this month. Two more loads are scheduled to arrive on May 10 and 11.
