A local businessman has launched a bottled water drive to help those still being affected by the water crisis in Flint, Michigan. Michael Folkes with M.A. Folkes Company is teaming up with the City of Hamilton and other organizations to collect donations of water through the end of the month. Folkes and his team plans to deliver cases of water directly to locations in Flint next month. You can donate by dropping off cases of water at the M.A. Folkes company on McBride Court. You can also drop off donations at any Hamilton fire station.
