Mayor's Challenge for Water Conservation

2023 Water Challenge

Please join us in celebrating the 12th anniversary of the Wyland National Mayor's challenge for water conservation by participating in the 2023 Challenge! This Challenge will take place April 1-30 2023.

The Challenge presented by the Wyland Foundation brings people and communities together both virtually and physically for a fun and educational competition to see which cities can be the most “water wise” and thousands of dollars in eco-friendly prizes. The Challenge reminds residents and educates children that simple individual actions can add up to huge change in protecting our environment.

Signing up and taking the pledge is a commitment to reducing pollution, water waste, while exploring other ways to improve the health of our community.

Participants in the winning cities are eligible to win hundreds of prizes. Last year, the challenge awarded more than $50,000 in prizes to nearly 300 residents in U.S. cities. Most importantly, participants see the enormous impact they can have on their community by taking simple actions to save water and energy. This year, the campaign will put a spot light on student participation, with students from thousands of schools across the country making water conservation commitments together with their teachers that directly support their city’s standings. As a special prize for students, one school from each winning city will receive 100 pairs of Zenni Remakes™ eyeglasses that help reduce damage to eyes from prolonged exposure to blue light. Each pair is made from the recycled plastics equal to three discarded single use plastic water bottles.
