Water First is a project that seeks to promote consumption of water instead of sugary drinks among students in elementary schools in the San Francisco Bay Area. Volunteers will help the team in schools in Union City and Hayward. This is a great opportunity for a motivated individual who wants to learn more about public health, research, working in schools, pediatric populations, and nutrition.
