This morning I got an e-broadcast from Yelp titled \"Portland on Tap.\" Okay, I admit it... I thought it was about beer and got excited. But when I opened it, I read the following: Not to bring you down this fine Tuesday, but did you know that more than 5,000 children are dying every day as a result of water-borne diseases? Not to bring you down this fine Tuesday, but did you know that more than 5,000 children are dying every day as a result of water-borne diseases? But what if we told you that by donating one dollar for your tap water, a child can have clean drinking water for 40 days? During the week of March 16-22, it is truly that simple. For those of you living in Portland, please click here to get details and view the list of participating restaurants. <a href=\"http://www.yelp.com/topic/portland-tap-tap-tap#6wsD7x8J0tEJqlmLAEzxew\">http://www.yelp.com/topic/portland-tap-tap-tap#6wsD7x8J0tEJqlmLAEzxew</a> Anyone else interested can visit the Tap Project's website at: <a href=\"http://www.tapproject.org/\">http://www.tapproject.org/</a>
